Manually Adding Samples to a Collection List

Before you finish creating a collection list, you may manually add one or more samples to the list of available orders. While you are in creation mode in the Collection List page, select the Collect Samples submenu link to access the Collect Samples page. Use the patient search feature to select the patient whose sample collection you wish to add to the collection list. See the Collect Samples topic.

Add to Collection List

Select to add the selected sample to the list of orders available for the collection list you are creating in the Collection List page. Find the appropriate sample in the list of outstanding samples, and select Add to Collection List for that sample.

The Collection List Search page appears, and when you access this page from the Collect Samples page while you are in the middle of creating a collection list on the Collection List page, the Add to Collection List button is available. See the Collection List Search topic.

Continue searching for and adding samples to the collection list, as desired.

Continue creating the collection list as you normally would.
