Hi Janet, We do allow those e-signing Physician (who are willing and want to correct their own reports) to use the edit function through the Quick Electronic Signature Edit Mode. This takes them directly into the body of the text when they select edit. The Audit trail for the report shows who made audits and when and giving them the ability to edit expedites getting the report to the final status because we do not have to wait for the middle man (transcription) to receive notification that a change is needed, make the edit then wait for the Physician to sign it from the queue. I know there is a messaging system that can be set up to e-mail messages from providers to transcription regarding edits, and we've tested it out and there are some nice features within it, but we have not availed ourselves of this option. It's easier for the Physician to pick up a phone and call transcription and many here still do not even use e-sign.

If so, do you allow them full access or shaded option or open option. We are pondering this idea and wondered what the pitfalls are for allowing them to edit and then e-sign. -- MEDITECH-L is powered by Serendipity. The best blog around, you can use it too.
