Ability to easily filter on worklist

There needs to be the ability for Edison True PACS customers to easily filter on the worklist. PACS IW customers had this ability before.

• PACS-IW offered users the ability to “display all studies for selected MRN”. This was a simple right click and it would display all the studies for the patient MRN. WFM does not allow this option, and the user has to type in the MRN in the search area and initiate. This is a common complaint from UV Study list users and is very cumbersome for users, especially when they are used to easily applying it with a right click and click. The Diagnostic Hub is not an easy solution nor what the customers want due to additional clicks.

  • On that same theme, sites with multiple MRNs, used to be able to access ALL MRNs within the worklist for a patient with multiple MRNs from multiple Hospitals in an organization with a combined database. WFM worklist only displays the “main MRN”, and the user must open the diagnostic hub in order to hover and display all the MRNs for the patient. This is much more time consuming. A solution would be to allow the users to hover over the WFM worklist MRN icon that signifies the patient has multiple MRNs and display a bubble/data box that conveys all the MRNs for the patient.

• PACS-IW users used to be able to edit their UV Study Lists by right clicking and going to edit. In WFM, we use system worklist that are not easily customizable by the users due to being built in SQL.

• Referring Physician is not available in the Advanced Search and Custom Worklist options in WFM. This was always available in PACS-IW/UV Study List, and is often used to search a patient based on the ordering/referring physician. Quite often ER Physicians, or Ortho doctors like the feature to build a specific worklist based on only their patients. This was widely used in the UV Study list and has been taken away in WFM. The only way to do so is request a system worklist to be built.

  • Not being able to create a Linked worklist currently in Edison True PACS has put a snag in the workaround for the referring physicians worklist creation.
