Verifying the orders then discontinuing them is not a "best practice" even if you are adding a comment to each order that the order was entered in error on the wrong patient/chart/account, when you view these discontinued orders in Order Chronology you cannot see these comments, so it looks like the patient at one time had that order, you see discontinued & unless you view each individual order you do not know the date/time the order was d/c'd.
Documentation & notes would be nice to be able to transfer to the correct account because documenting on the incorrect account does occasionally happen. flowcharts & e-forms have to be completely re charted notes can be copy/pasted but getting the provider to do that is like pulling teeth.
