Gail, I will assume you are a Client/Server site, as are we. We are using the messages system that Meditech 5.5 has, to pass questions back and forth between the radiologist and transcriptionist. Some of our radiologists also do some editing themselves when they are in the e-sign routine. We are NOT using MSWORD but rather Rich Text. This makes the editing process a little faster for the radiologist. Also we have it set up to use Quick Edit which means only the body section of the report is loaded for their editing. (makes it faster still) Some radiologists in our region just send a message back to the transcriptionist to correct the errors and resubmit. If the radiologist fails to correct the errors or answer the messages, and signs the report, then when or if the error is found, it may be necessary to unsign the report, make the corrections and re-submit for signing. Our transcriptionists have the ability to unsign reports which is a ITS toolbox parameter set by Meditech.

Slave Lake Health Complex ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Howard, Gail Sent: Thursday, January 04, 2007 1:37 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [MEDITECH-L] Meditech E-Sig We are migrating our physicians from Dictaphone E-Sig to Meditech E-Sig and find the two applications to be very different in editing capabilities. We have two process questions: How do you handle anomalies in E-Sig? (blanks where the transcriptionist didn't understand what the dictator said) What is your process for when the physician does not complete the blank but signs the document anyway? Are your physicians using the edit function of E-Sig in Meditech to make corrections to the document? How easy have the physicians adapted to learning to edit? Thanks for any input.
