FINAL NOTES
We have done the best possible in changing your menus to
accommodate the new functionality.
We may have missed something.
It is your responsibility to go into the test system and review
your day to day functionality to determine if something important
is missing.
If something is missing please call Applications at Ext 6562 or
Pat Mulberger at Ext 5373 (Pat’s Meditech Hotline).
On the day of LIVE we will primarily be concerned with issues
that directly affect patient care. So as not to be frustrated
please please review your Order Entry and Scheduling (for OR
reports) menus in Test 5.56.
Questions? Call Ext 6562 or contact Pat M. at her regular
extension – 5781.
