After create PL during precharting, SAVE YOUR HARD WORK! Put it somewhere in your EMR where it is easily accessible AND editable, if possible. In Epic, one example would be to put it under “Healthcare maintenance” or other heading in problem list and pin it on the top for easy access & editing. Add HCM (healthcare maintenance) template to this as well (includes vaccines, cancer screenings, etc). Do this for imaging incidentals as well (either under problem list, “incidentaloma”, or the individual topics (adrenal adenoma, thyroid nodule, etc). Other tips: -Can add personal notes/reminders to sticky note (or area of EMR where you can see it but others cannot) -For IV infusion (iron, bisphos, IV fluids), order under “therapy plan” - EPIC specific
When looking up established pt or acute visit patient that you are not the PCP for, “query”CareEverywhere/outside records, review notes/encounters since last visit, review labs and imaging since last visit. Summarize relevant things in your upcoming visit note for the patient.
