After studies are dictated using IMPAX Reporting, they can be grouped in a sign-off worklist for the radiologist (or for a group of radiologists) to approve.
 | Note: If using analog mode or the TalkStation integration, you cannot make any modifications to studies in the sign-off worklist because they are not connected to the IMPAX RIS database. |
To create a sign-off worklist
In the List area, click Worklists.
In the Worklist Library, under Standard Worklists, click New.
In the Worklist Name field, type a name that describes the purpose of the worklist.
If the worklist is for a single radiologist to sign off reports, we recommend using the name of the radiologist.
From the Type of Worklist list, select Sign Off Worklists.
No search options can be selected for sign-off worklists.
Switch to the Organization tab and select a location for the worklist in the role hierarchy.
Switch to the Physicians tab and select the radiologist or radiologists (use the Shift and Crtl keys) using this worklist to sign off reports.
Note:
The Proxy Signoff checkbox must be cleared to select multiple radiologists.
The radiologists must be defined in the proxy group of the login radiologist so that radiologist can sign the reports of the other physicians listed in the proxy group.
Click OK.
The worklist is added to the Standard Worklists group.
 | CAUTION! We strongly recommend that you do not use the Submit Report button available on the Sign-off worklists in the List area (note that the button is only available in Analog mode). Clicking this button sets the report status to VALIDATED but the report content itself is not updated; therefore, the report content is contradictory with the report status. |
