EHR Reminders

The new Clinical Reminders package adds another powerful decision support tool for clinicians to use with the EHR. Clinicians can interactively "resolve" reminders through the Notes and Consults tabs in the EHR. Reports can be designed to provide many different views of patients' health maintenance schedules. Clinical Reminders can be defined and used for many purposes, including the following:
  • Patients in a panel or a clinic who have a reminder due
  • Aggregate reporting
  • Patient-specific reports for intervention
  • Inpatients with a reminder due
  • Intervention prior to discharge
  • Identify patients who will be in clinic in the next month who need an intervention
  • Identify patients who have left the clinic in the past week who missed having an intervention
  • Identify patients with lab findings but no diagnosis made
  • Employee Health Tracking
  • Inpatient education, exams, immunizations
  • Reports on patients eligible for a study
  • Identify high risk patients
  • Disease-specific reminders: HCV, HIV, Melanoma, AAA, Diabetes
  • Comparisons of disease distribution or severity of illness between panels or clinics

This advanced four day class is most intense and will provide "Reminders Managers" with the tools necessary to manage "Reminders" at their site. Course content includes:

  • Definition Clinical Reminders
  • National Reminders
  • How to Make a Reminder
  • Reminder Test
  • Reminder Dialogs
  • Reminder Exchange
  • Reminder Reports
  • Health Summary
