Visit List

Go-live: New Feature with Code Upgrade (May 14)

After the change with the Appointments component going away, a new feature will be added to help display more information regarding the appointments. This change will occur with the Code Upgrade (May 14th).

Dynamic Documentation

‘Visit Lists’ will be added to your light side menu on ‘Provider View.’ You can move this new component by left-clicking, holding, and dragging it up or down on your light side menu list.

Single-click on the Visit you wish to learn more about. A new half-screen will appear with details. Change the tab from ‘Encounter details’ to ‘Appointment Details’; by doing this, you can see where the appointment will be held, visit reason, appointment type, status of the appointment, and the primary resource.

Appointments classified as ‘Secured’ will be represented on the Visit List with dashes ( - ). When clicking on the appointment, the ‘Appointment Details’ tab will show the message: “Access Restricted. You are not authorized to view further details of this visit.”

All Other Users

A new component labeled ‘Visit List’ will be added to your work view. You will be able to see the Date, Type of Appointment, Location, the provider, and other pieces of information from this view.

If you want to see both Past and Future appointment details, click the hyperlink labeled ‘Show Full View’ in the screen's bottom left corner. You will then see the heading ‘Visit List - Full View,’ and can look at all appointments.
