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 selecting the Results To... button. A user can define 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 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.
Access
- Select Results To... on the Demographics page.
