Page History
There are a number of different ways data can be uploaded to PAT CAT. Practices can submit data to their PHN or other organisation directly from CAT4 (described above in 5.3) by email, ftp or direct upload or data can be submitted as described below after a practice has logged on to PAT CAT.
With the release of CAT4 a new automatic data submission function has been added. In combination with our scheduler CAT4 can now be configured to automatically collect and submit data to PAT CAT. We recommend to use the 'Send to PATCAT' upload as it is the easiest and most secure way to upload data.
There is a quick reference guide available covering the data upload through CAT4 from help.pencs.com.au/cat.htm
The guide is called 'PAT CAT Quick Reference Guide Data Upload using 'Send to PAT CAT' option'.
Please refer to the 'PCS Clinical Audit PAT CAT Scheduler User Guide v1-0' available from help.pencs.com.au/cat.htm for details on how to set up scheduled collections and automatic uploads.
This guide only describes how to upload data through the web interface of PAT CAT – uploading data through CAT4 is the easier and recommended option.
Logon details will have to be provided by the PHN or other organisation and practice access needs to be configured as described in chapter Setting up Practices.
