Adding addressee informationTopic number: 1425411804287
While completing an order or reviewing addressees, add communication methods (Distribute via) such as the referring physician’s postal address or radiologist’s email address, so that reports can be distributed.
- In the Text area, switch to the Addressees tab.
Default addressees defined by report distribution rules are displayed with their default communication channels selected by default. For example, fax or printer appear with print request information and number of copies.
Note:
Even if an addressee is not specified, blank addressee information is maintained to allow addition during later processing. Reports are not distributed until at least one addressee is present. For duplicate addressees, reports are distributed only once. - To specify default addressees, in the Distribute via and Report sent to
columns, click the drop-down list.
For Distribute via, add from configured channels for that addressee. For Report sent to, add information relevant to that communication method.
- To delete an addressee, click the delete icon.
The addressee then receives no reports for studies in the order.
- To add other addressees, click Add addressee, select Default addressee (then select an item from the study related addressees), Physician, Department, Facility, or Ad hoc, and type the requested information.
All default and other addresses appear in the Addressees tab.
| Note: If you are unable to add addressee information, and your drop-down list contains no items, contact your system administrator. Addressee information is available only if configured via the Administrator Desktop. |
