Get Started with MedicalDirector Insights

Run MedicalDirector Insights for the first time.

Before you begin

Ensure your computer meets the minimum operating system requirements. For more information, refer to Microsoft OS and SQL Server Compatibility Matrix.

Upgrade to MedicalDirector Clinical 4.3a R2 or later.

Procedure

To run MedicalDirector Insights:

Locate and double-click the MedicalDirector Insights icon on your desktop.
Log in to MedicalDirector Insights.
1. From the Configuration list, select the MedicalDirector database containing the data you want to view.
2. From the User list, select your username.
3. In the Password field, type your password.
4. Click OK.

What to do next

The first time you run MedicalDirector Insights for each Clinical database you have, the Clinical data is analysed and a separate, corresponding MedicalDirector Insights database is generated. This can take a few minutes. Once complete, MedicalDirector Insights opens and displays the Dashboard.

Tip:

When the Dashboard appears for the first time, it contains no data; there are no data snapshots to view. This is because the data within the newly-created MedicalDirector Insights database has not yet been analysed.
