Update status of signed orders
Path: Transactions>General>Process Signed Documents
- Go to Transactions>General>Process Signed Documents, and then click the Orders tab.
- Select the physician for whom you want to record the receipt of signed orders and, if needed, modify the date range. By default, the Orders tab opens displaying all open orders (with the "P" and "M" statuses).
- Select the appropriate status for the order:
Note: The default status is pending ("P") once the order is approved in the Order Run.- P (Pending) – To indicate that the order has not been returned signed yet.
- A (Signed) – To indicate that the order has been obtained with a physician's signature.
- If the order was signed on paper, you should manually change the status to signed, and the
- Received field will populate with the current date that can be edited.
- If the order has been signed electronically on Physician Portal, it automatically appears with the "A" status and the E check box selected (electronically signed).
- M (Signed with changes) – To indicate that the order has been signed by the physician but some changes are required.
- It is an agency's responsibility to review the Orders Audit report and correct all the orders with the "M" status to "C".
- C (Signed, changes applied) – To indicate that the order with the "M" status has been corrected. If a physician signs an order with some notes added on Physician Portal, it automatically appears with the "C" status and the E check box selected. You can preview and print these orders in the Order Run to which they were linked.
- X (Rejected) – To reject the order. For more information, see Rejecting Orders.
- If necessary, enter any other notes for the order in the Notes section at the lower part of the window. Notes are entered for the currently selected order in the grid. After saving, the added notes appear in the Notes column for the corresponding order.
- Save your changes.
