Managing New Results

Before you begin

Before importing and managing Investigations Results, ensure that MedicalDirector Clinical has been configured correctly for each of your providers, if necessary.

Pathology Results Notifications Pathology Results Notifications Running Time: 25:24

This topic refers specifically to managing new Investigations Results that have been received by the surgery in electronic form.

The basic process for managing new results is as follows:

Procedure

From the Clinical front screen, select Correspondence > Check Holding File. See The Holding File for more information.
Within the Holding File examine each result.
Make a notation against each result. A result cannot be saved to a patient's record until a notation as been recorded.
Determine if you want to record a Recall notification for the patient in question.
Repeat steps 2 through 4 until you all results have been attended to. You can always suspend your examinations, and return to the Holding File at later time to continue.
Examine the Outstanding Requests list (a list of current requests) to determine which requests can now be deleted, and which are still awaiting results.
