For other set up values not listed in the standard set up list:
- Only Undiagnosed: Select to limit student list to those who do not have a diagnosis. If this is left unchecked, all students with a consult record will be listed on the loader screen.
- NOTE: Only students with a "Consult Record" will show whether you check or do not check the Only Undiagnosed box.
- Dx Code: Click in the cell to the right to get a list of Diagnosis Codes. Click in the square to left of “Value” to select all code numbers and the corresponding description. You may select one or more of the Diagnosis Codes and Descriptions needed by clicking in the check box to the left of the Code number. Click OK to enter the selections in the Dx Code.
- NOTE: The Dx Codes displayed will be determined by the dates entered in the Consults From and the Consults To date boxes. For dates prior to October 1, 2015, the ICD 9 codes will be displayed. For dates on or after October 1, 2015, the ICD 10 codes will be displayed. Selecting the Consult date range prior to entering the DX codes will make this process go smoother.

- Consults To: Select the "To" date by either selecting the month, day, and year individually or by clicking on the calendar to the right of the "Consults To"
