If lab results received on paper, but are not in EMR, ensure that an order and/or the correct order is in the system for the result to attach to.
Verify that patient info in PM system matches that which is in EMR.
Also specific to V11.1.6, when there is an Active Verify Result task and additional new results need to be verified, the new results may attach to the prior Active VR task instead of creating a new VR task.
For example: A magnesium is order is placed on 9/22/10. A verify result task is generated for the Magnesium on 9/22/10 once the result is returned to the EHR.
The result is not verified (thus the verify result task remains in the task basket) and a new order for a Potassium is placed for the same patient on 9/24/10.
When the potassium results, no VR task is created, instead the result attaches to the 9/22/10 VR task with the Magnesium.
