Force User to Send the Note for Attending Physician Signature
Revision as of 13:52, 3 August 2011 by Tammara.Blankenship (talk | contribs)
When a Mid-Level Provider, such as a Nurse Practitioner or Resident, signs a note in Enterprise EHR, they usually need to have a Supervising or Attending Physician review and Sign the note. These are the necessary steps to force the user to send the note for further signature:
- Verify the Finalization Authority Level on Document Type in Dictionary.
- Go to TWAdmin>Dictionaries>Document Type.
- In the example below, Established document type has Finalization Authority Level 8.
- Check the box labeled ‘Prompt User to Route for Further Signature’ on the General Properties II section of the Document Type.
- Verify the Finalization Authority on the Midlevel Provider is lower than the Document Type.
- When the user with a lower Finalization Authority Level than the selected note signs the note, the Task Details dialogue box will appear forcing the user to select an Attending Provider to Co-Sign their note.
