Tool Search: Condition List
The Health Condition Setup stores the conditions or diseases that students may have. This condition can be listed on the student’s health tab and related treatments or medications can then be tracked for the student.
Condition List
Health Condition List Prerequisites
The following items must be done prior to creating health conditions.

System Preferences are available that affect the display and logic of health conditions and condition flags when assigned to a student. These preferences should be reviewed and set as appropriate for the school district.
These preferences must be set for conditions to work properly.
Condition List Groups

Groups can be created for Health Conditions to better organize the list of conditions a district may have. This is done by adding a Group dictionary item to the Health Condition List attribute.

Create a New Health Condition
- In System Administration > Health > Condition List, select the New button. The Health Condition List Detail editor will appear below.
- Mark the Active checkbox to allow the condition to be assigned to a student. If not selected, the condition can still be saved, but will not appear in the list of conditions for a student. The condition will appear in the Condition List Editor in non-bold font. Active conditions appear in bold font.
- When the condition is assigned to a student, districts have the option of displaying a condition flag next to the student’s name. If this new condition should cause a flag to appear next to a student’s name, mark the Allow Flag checkbox.
- Enter the code for the condition within the Code field. This code can be a state code for a certain condition, a district code, or a code number that comes from the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) list.
Codes can be up to 10 digits or characters in length.
- Enter the type of condition within the Type field if desired. The Type will be combined with the Code on reports and lists if populated.
- Enter a description for the condition within the Description field. This description can be up to sixty characters in length, including any spaces or punctuation.
- Designate a Group for the condition if desired by selecting a group from the dropdown list. If no group option is appropriate for the condition, leave this field blank. Groups are created in the Attribute Dictionary.
- Select the Save button when finished. The new condition will appear within the Health Condition List Editor.
