Orders to Scheduling: NM and Cardio Stress PowerPlans

ALL stress tests are now powerplans instead of caresets for single orders.  The “Why” for this is to ensure the correct type of imaging order is placed. 

Search for “stress” within the orders window or navigate to the Stress Folder

There is also a folder called “Stress Tests

When you select the plan, the imaging/type options for stress are available.  If you do not choose an order, by clicking in the square, you are NOT placing any order.  Complete the needed fields as indicated by the blue circle with the X.  This means you need some additional information on the order

Complete the required fields, and sign the plan

If no order is selected, you will receive this message.  You will need to click “Cancel” and go back and chose the test you want to be completed on the patient

 

You cannot order from this screen; you must click cancel and order from the powerplan

Cerner Registration & Scheduling: New Radiology Order Process

Cerner Registration & Scheduling: New Radiology Orders Process

When: Past several weeks; addition of new folders (e.g., Stress Tests) and replacement of existing orders/caresets with the new PowerPlans

What: Updates of the existing radiology caresets (e.g., mammo, NM, MRI, etc.) to be usable with the new Cerner Reg/Sched process

*Note: This is the orders process, not the scheduling process that starts August 4th

You will notice right away that orders that were either single orders, or caresets, will now appear with the yellow “pizza.” This indicates they are now PowerPlans.

They will work much more straightforward than the larger PowerPlans.

 

You will locate and place the order for the desired exam as usual, and then find them in the PLANS section of the orders scratch pad to finish the required fields.

You MUST select an order prior to signing. Skipping the actual order will lead to no order processing through.

When you complete the entire order requirements, you will see the order in the “initiated” state.

Radiology: New Stress Test Orders

NEW STRESS TEST ORDERS
