  • Create requests for setting medical devices in-services, reviewing alternative equipment maintenance (AEM), resolving medical device issues, or setting medical devices out-of-service from a service portal.

    Your administrator can configure the option for creating medical device cases based on the service request type for a medical device. The submission form for each request type is configured by your administrator.

    As a user with the sn_hcls_cmms.device_service_org_contributor role, use the following options available by default from the Case menu on the Customer Service Portal page to place service requests for your medical devices:

    Medical device in-service
    Request to set a medical device in-service and associate the device with a maintenance plan.
    Request AEM review
    Request to review the current maintenance plan changes associated with a medical device model.
    Report medical device issue
    Report medical device issues and request to perform corrective maintenance for resolving them.
    Medical device out-of-service
    Request to set a medical device out-of-service.

    After a request is submitted, a corresponding medical device case is created on the associated ServiceNow instance. A clinical engineer then works on the case. To learn more, see Managing medical device cases in Workspace.
