Coming in January-- Drug-Food Alerts: Review and Suppress for Encounter.
Functionality: Will allow providers to filter a Drug-Food alert for themselves only for a specific patient for the duration of the patient’s encounter. Providers and IT personnel will have the ability to remove filtering.
How to Suppress the Drug-Food alert:
1) Select ‘Review & Suppress for Encounter’ as an Override Reason on the alert
2) Select ‘Continue’
How to remove suppression:
1) Select ‘Check Interactions’ at the top of the patient’s Order Profile
2) A red sphere appears to the left of all orders with interactions. Find the medication in question and click to view all interactions for the order. See allergy example below.
3) Under Provider Filtered Alerts, check the box under ‘Unfilter’
4) Select Continue.
5) This will cause the alert to fire again upon order entry of that medication.
