Scanning is going well. See attached PDF for common forms
that are being scanned that are not required to be scanned.
One of the forms discussed was Discharge Paperwork. Per
hospital policy, this form doesn’t have to be signed by the
patient, or anyone else. In fact, medical records would prefer
you not to the discharge paperwork signed. There is an
electronic version that already goes to patient’s medical record.
It was made aware that the downtime form is a duplex form
with carbon copies that has signature lines. SSS will work on a
suitable downtime form.
Problems in getting help with Vendor to fix the scanner in a
timely manner. Attached you will find a document that shows
the best steps in getting your scanner/fax fixed if broken.

Peds Patient Transport Radiology
10 minutes

radiology, pocket guide were discussed. No questions.
Ron Reed
IV Team Workflow
10 minutes
Group
 Discussed IV work flow, most floors the nurse either filled a
form out and the MR called or the nurse called and spoke with
IV Team. On occasion, MR would take information from nurse
and deliver info to the IV team when they called back.
Issues / Concerns: MR’s and message basket
15 minutes
 Message Baskets discussed, only 9th floor was using message
baskets for appointment scheduling. 9th floor is going to check
with their leadership as they have come across physicians
putting in orders for the apt scheduling and so work is being
duplicated. In general for most floors, physicians are using
HEO/WIZ order to schedule appointments for patients. Over
all message basket use is few and far between.
Next Computer Talk will be March 6, 2012.
