• Complete integration with MEDITECH, providing access to all daily routines
• Real-time notification of abnormal lab/radiology results
• Intra-office clinical messaging
• Storage of messages in the patient’s MPM Patient Record
• Access to inpatient, outpatient and emergency patient lists to provide all-inclusive care

Standard Features

Workload Management
The Physician Desktop has been designed to help physicians prioritize and streamline their daily workflow. The Workload Management tool utilizes “push technology” to notify the provider of critical test results and other items requiring immediate attention. Workload Management also allows physicians to effectively manage daily tasks, including:

• Common screen to review and sign multiple medical records
• Task list to organize and prioritize prescription renewals, lab orders and results, clinical notes, etc.
• Concise, personalized physician schedule
• Direct access to the MPM Patient Record and MPM Ordering.

Clinical Messaging
The Physician Desktop provides medical staff with a simple and intuitive tool for sending messages related to patient care. The messaging tool allows the user to prioritize and direct
specific tasks, such as:

• Processing patient phone calls
• Reviewing diagnostic results flowing in real-time from MEDITECH’s Laboratory and Radiology modules
• Notifying of overdue diagnostic orders
• Renewing prescriptions
• (Re)scheduling patient appointments.

The messaging tool is fully integrated with the patient’s MPM Patient Record. Therefore, each time a completed message is closed, a note is automatically attached to the patient’s record.
