Description
Use the Result Recipients pop-up to view or modify the list of people who will receive copies of the results for the current order. This includes the ordering provider, ordering location, host lab, users, and/or external recipients.
For orders that you have already saved, you may also redeliver the reports to one or more selected recipients. This allows you to re-transmit results to host systems or to change your report format and then resend results.

Result Recipients List
Lists all the people, locations, or hosts that are currently selected to receive copies of the order results.
You cannot edit the details for a user, ordering location, lab, or ordering provider. However, you may edit the details for an external delivery recipient.
| Recipient | Select the name of the recipient to open the Add or Edit Recipient Pop-up where you may view or modify the recipient's details. |
|---|---|
| Recipient Role | Displays the recipient role (relationship to the order, such as ordering provider, ordering location, lab, user, or external delivery). By default, both the ordering provider and the patient's primary care provider (PCP) are included as result recipients. In cases where the PCP places the order, that provider is only listed once. |
| Contact Fax | Displays the fax number. There is no fax information for host recipients because the program always sends results via HL7 to hosts. |
| Contact Email | Displays the email address. There is no email information for host recipients because the program always sends results via HL7 to hosts. |
| Suppress | Select this checkbox to suppress results. Note This option is not available if the result recipient is a public health agency host. |
| Delete | Select this button to delete the recipient from the list. Note This option is not available if the result recipient is a public health agency host. |
| Redeliver | Select this checkbox for each recipient who should receive the redelivered report, then select Redeliver. Select the Redeliver column label to select or deselect all recipients on the current page. Note If you do not have the necessary security right, this column is not visible. |
Result Recipients Buttons

|---|---|
