Taking care of populations and closing care gaps is now made easy! The Quality Measures sidebar is now available to the health care team. This sidebar report houses best practice alerts (BPA) to ensure that we are addressing quality measures at each encounter appropriately.  The quality sidebar has the added benefit of allowing the end user to address multiple care gaps in few clicks.  The recommendations are defaulted to the appropriate selection choice and in one to two clicks, care gaps can be closed.   The quality sidebar is available by default and allows for easy navigation and integration into the normal clinic workflow.  The first two quality BPAs located in the sidebar focus on tobacco status assessment and cessation.  Check out the tip sheet and give it a try with your next patient!

With the recent upgrade, an unintended change caused some resident charts to send 2 Inbasket messages for the attending to cosign.  We have corrected the issue and resident documentation should function as normal now for your areas.  If you are scheduling to the resident directly, it will generate a Cosign Chart inbasket message where you can use the quick note button to document your attestation.  If you schedule to the Attending and the resident closes the encounter, it will prompt them to enter a cosigner for the note.  The attending can then use the attest button in their Cosign Note inbasket to document their attestation.

Beginning Monday, June 3, new orders will be available for Dexa bone density scans that are performed in the Pavilion under a new name: "Clinic Performed Dexa Scan."
