Dream Factory by TruBridge Ideas Portal
This request has been addressed by adding an Order Reason to the Future Nursing Order Edit screen. When selecting the Order Reason, a Future Order Reasons List is available to search for a diagnosis from the diagnosis Lookup or a current Problem from the Problem List. This went out on the 21.01.05 release.
This is being addressed as part of the Future Orders project by UTC. It does not need to be considered for Dream factory Month
Received information from Zoe Obert:
Yes with an attachable ICD 10.
So that if our LTC patient needs a cath changed qmonth then the provider can place the order in future orders and then nursing can release it and the coder wont be like “no one put a DX” .
We should add Medications to this also. At BMH our Clinic often refers patients to our Outpatient Clinic and we need to be able to order Medications and Nursing orders, as a future order, because when patient gets to Outpatient Clinic, this is a hospital account, so we need those orders on that account. Currently providers are either doing a paper order, or we have to call the provider to enter orders once patient gets to the Outpatient Clinic. If the provider could enter these as future orders it would make things go much smoother.
Another example, now that we can put future orders on hospital accounts, is if a provider discharges an inpatient and wants them to come back for fluids a couple days later this will be helpful also.
