Validate Orders

Validate orders entered by users who do not have permission to validate orders.

  • Orders that require validation are filed by users who are not a doctor or users who are not associated with a doctor. Generate the Orders Requiring Validation report to view all orders requiring validation.
  • Users are given permission to validate orders in the Order Entry User Role and Order Entry User Definition forms.
  • When myAvatar Order Entry is integrated with RxConnect, the Reviewing Practitioner Who Is Not Enrolled field is hidden. This change supersedes any registry settings that might otherwise control these fields.

  1. Go to: Avatar Order Entry > Order Entry Client Information > Client Profile / Physicians Orders
  2. On the Select Client screen, enter the client name or ID and Select.
  3. In the Renew/DC/Val section, select the order entry source.
  4. For the Delayed Entry field, select if the order is delayed.
    Note: If the client has been discharged it is recommended the order be delayed. Delayed orders are filed after the order has been given to a client.
  5. In the Order Action field, select Validate.
    Result: Fields associated with validating an order display.
  6. Select Display Order List / Select Order(s) to Review to display the Order Entry Client Profile Order List/Selection screen.
  7. Select the orders and then, Ok.
    Note: Orders requiring validation display V next to the practitioner ID. Multiple orders can be selected. The Practitioner ID that displays is the one associated with the last action performed on the order (ordering, changing, reviewing) that would have resulted in the order being set to Requires Validation status.
  8. Select Display Details of Selected Order(s) to view the Client Profile - Order Details report for the selected orders.
    Note: This report includes the order type, episode, and treatment setting for each order.
  9. Optional. If appropriate, click Re-Screen Order to perform clinical screening on the order.
    Result: The order is screened against active orders for the client. If potential problems are detected, a message displays. The Re-Screen Order button is enabled when the Clinical Screening Feature Available registry setting is enabled, and at least one of the selected orders is a pharmacy order type.
  10. In the Reviewing Practitioner field, enter the name or ID and select.
    Result: The Reviewing Practitioner field is populated with the staff member associated with the user if Yes was selected for the Use Staff Member As Ordering Practitioner field in the Order Entry User Definition section of the Order Entry User Definition form. Staff member associations are made in the RADplus User Definition form.

    If the practitioner is not enrolled in the facility, enter the practitioner name in the Reviewing Practitioner Who Is Not Enrolled field.

    Note: Practitioners are enrolled in the Practitioner Enrollment and Practitioner Enrollment (Brief) forms of myAvatar PM.
  11. For the Review Date and Review Time fields, enter the date and time the order was reviewed.
  12. In the Renew/DC/Val. Reason Code field, select the validation reason code.
  13. In the Renew/DC/Val. Reason Text field, enter an explanation of the reason for validating the order.
  14. Optional. In the Print Notification(s) field, select Yes if a notification should be printed when the order is filed.
  15. Select File Data or File Data and Print Order.
