Description
To be able to assign a different color to "Verified" exams that are waiting to be read opposed to "Dictated", "Transcribed" and "Completed" exams that have already been read. This was easy to see visually on a worklist in IW with the green check mark indicator. |

The site prefers to see all studies for "Today" on one list in many cases (some filter). The site does not verify studies, so the Ortho Physicians are used to seeing a full list of their patients for the day, and they like the ability to easily identify dictated/completed studies with color. This is a popular request from previous PACS-IW customers. I am working at UHS VHS this week and they have suggested a similar request, wanting a small icon like PACS IW where the notepad is dark green when the study has a final report. They don't like having to rely on the responsible author to determine. They feel it's an extra click to have to open the diagnostic HUB in order to see if there is a final report. In their case, Techs do not always mark studies verified in a timely manner, and their Rads read off a different PACS. The report is completed yet the techs still go into the study and mark it verified (because they are told they have to eventually). This changes the completed status to verified but it has a final report. The site admin and others don't know it has a final report like they did inn PACS IW until they search and open the Diagnostic HUB. This is creating a problem with customer adoption and willing usage of moving to V7 WFM from the UV Study list. An icon like PACS-IW and UV Study List would be a very helpful identifier, as we are seeing many sites not using the appropriate verify workflow.
Site currently has the column where Exam Statuses are displayed. This is being reported as a page of gray where the "words" for the different status (Arrived, Verified, Dictated, Transcribed, Completed) are hard for users to easily identify. Being able to make Verified status exams a different color would allow Radiologist to easily identify which exams are awaiting to be read.
The ortho site in particular does not verify studies. They like to use a worklist that includes multiple statuses, and seeing separation with coloring stands out better for the Physicians. This workflow is not standard, nor urgent, but worth consideration as a configurable option for sites similar to the reporting site. As an example, Physicians complained that they miss the PACS-IW/UV Study list "reviewed" green checkmark next to dictated studies that made them standout.
Please provide the workflow where entire worklist needs to be viewed with their statuses.. as WFM does provide ability to add a column that allows you to filter out or include each of these statuses to help identify potential workflow needs.
