Lab and Radiology Reports need to contain the Time/Date Stamp (Electronic Signature) of the Provider when they acknowledge the results. Currently you cannot see when a provider acknowledges Lab and Radiology Reports. CMS Surveyors will ask to see when the provider acknowledged the lab results. Currently, all we can show them is the Alert Audit Report and that does not have a lot of detail. The time/date stamp when acknowledged by the provider needs to appear on the Lab and Radiology report when viewed as a PDF.
We just went through an audit and this was asked for. I think that it would be better to have an "Esign" option instead on the "Acknowledge".
