Patient Result Delivery

Page Description

Use the Patient Result Delivery page to define who receives results based on the patient associated with an order. This is configured in the same way as the "Results To..." section on Order Patient Samples and is accessed from the Demographics page and by clicking the Results To... button. A user can define Copia Users, Locations, Hosts (if the user is a System-Clinical user), and External Recipients for the selected patient, and all results associated with that patient will be sent to the configured recipients. When viewing Result Recipients via the Results To... button on Order Patient Samples, any Recipients defined for the selected Patient will appear in the list, but they will only be able to be edited through the Patient Demographics page. Recipients configured on the Order take precedence over Recipients configured on the Patient. If a Patient Recipient is a duplicate of an Order Recipient will override the Patient Recipient.

Saving the Recipient to A Patient
  1. To save a recipient to a patient, first navigate to the Add/Edit Recipient page to add and edit recipient details.
  2. After clicking the OK button on the Add/Edit Recipient page, you will return to the Patient Result Delivery page where you can view the recipient that will be saved to the patient. Note that the recipient will not be saved to the patient until you click the OK button on the Patient Result Delivery page followed by the Save button on the Demographics page.
  3. When the recipient has been added to the Patient Result Delivery page, you are able to view the recipient's name, type (i.e., Copia User), fax number, and email address. Click the recipient's name to return to the Add/Edit Recipient page where you can add a fax number in the "Contact Fax" field and an email address in the "Contact Email" field. Click the OK button to save these changes and to return to the Patient Result Delivery page, or click the Cancel button to return without saving any changes. You may delete a recipient from the Patient Result Delivery page by clicking the X button at the end of the row.
  4. Once everything on the Patient Result Delivery page is correct, click the OK button to add the recipient to the patient information. You will be directed back to the Demographics page where you will notice that the Results To... button is now italicized with green text. Click the Results To... button at any time to add and edit recipients on the patient. Click the Save button on the Demographics page to save the recipient to the patient.
