Authorize Order Tasks not in Patient Worklist
Authorize Order tasks that were created prior to the V11 Upgrade will appear in the Task List, but will not be present in the Patient Worklist. An example is below with the first screen-shot of the Authorize Order task in the Task List.
If one double-clicks an Authorize Order task, the Clinical Desktop will then be presented. If the Authorize Order was created prior to the V11 upgrade, the task will not be located in Patient Worklist.
Here is a screen-shot of the Task list including an Authorize Order
Here is what is presented when one double-clicks an Authorize Order that was created prior-V11
- To authorize the order, change the second drop-down menu within the Current Meds/Orders module to select “Status”
- Scroll down to the section of unauthorized orders
- Right click on the unauthorized order, and select Authorize
Note: In limited testing, the authorize option was grayed out when the order was under Unauthorized – Requires Authorization, but orders in Unauthorized – Requires Signature, no issues were encountered.
