Quickly Follow Up on Studies From the Breast Coordinator Dashboard • Breast imaging coordinators can easily see what follow-up is needed for each study • Click a link to quickly access the appropriate activity to perform the follow-up • In the Follow-up Details report there is a new section called Required Follow Up that lists all of the items requiring follow up for the selected patient. Clicking the hyperlink will take you to the correction location in Epic to complete the follow up.

  12. Get to the Link Orders Activity from the Appointments Without Orders Report • In the Link Requests or Link Orders activity, select the Show all available requests or Show all available orders check box to manually link requests or orders to multiple visits in a panel or other sequentially linked appointments. • Epic has replaced the Verify Orders button in the Appointments Without Orders report with the Link Appt to Orders button so that HOV appointments can be linked to orders. Now, users can link appointments to orders for HOV, inpatient and outpatient visits.

The Sex field in Demographics now displays areas to capture Gender identity, Sex assigned at birth, and Sexual orientation. • There are also updates throughout the system that make it easier for users to see a patient's preferred name, such as in Patient Lists, Headers, Chart Review , Reports or InBasket. This is especially important for transgender or non-binary patients, but also helps improve the patient experience for any patient with a preferred name that differs from their legal name. • SmartLinks have been updated to retrieve a patient's titles and pronouns based on the patient's gender identity. • MyChart Patients can now view and edit more on the new Personal Information page, including: preferred name legal sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex assigned at birth. • Baby Names now display the mothers preferred name as part of the baby naming convention.
