Documentation Quality Improvement - Work Package #1: Medication SmartLinks

The Connect Care Documentation Quality Improvement initiative seeks to enhance the utility of summative documentation templates for history & physical, consult, discharge, transfer, deceased and operative notes. Oversight is provided by the Clinical Documentation Quality Improvement Workgroup, reporting to the Clinical Documentation Committee.

An early task is to improve building blocks used by summative document authoring tools, including the SmartLinks that pull in lists of medications. A presentation describes the design of new prototypes, now ready for validation and review. 

While Builders and Analysts are the first review participants, any Connect Care user is welcome to learn about the work and offer feedback. Start by viewing the presentation. 

Builders can follow instructions provided in the presentation for working with medication SmartLink prototypes in the Connect Care POC or TST environments. Users can also use screenshots provided in the  presentation. All can share feedback and suggestions using an online survey.
