This is similar to the old PCI list or the BICS list • In addition to basic patient information, you will see indications for recent results, documents requiring signature and other notifications

  5. Manage patients in list • You can add patient by going clicking on Find Patient and doing a search • Once you find a patient, inpatients can be added to the list • A patient on the list can be removed by clicking the □ box on left and choosing REMOVE from the right menu
