Good Morning,
Looking for workflow ideas.
How are your doctors making notations to labs reviewed? Once a lab comes in are they appending it with their instructions and routing it to a clinical staff member to call the patient? What is your process? We are looking for something smoother as most are complaining that the current append & route is too "clicky".
Any workflow ideas are appreciated!
Thank you,
Rebecca
Good morning,
I currently have one Cardiology group that is using a "lab processing" form where the nurse does a full append on the lab report and opens a form to review the labs, meds etc prior to routing the append to the provider for completion. They are currently looking for other options as well the majority of our other sites are addressing in the append method.
Thank you for the response. We use a similar workflow. I was hoping GE would have come out with a better alternative so that the APPEND message could be at the top of the lab report. Short of opening a new update to document result notes, as you know the APPEND method lands at the very bottom of a long lab text file.
Thanks for your thoughts. 🙂
