A Scheduled Order will show up in two different scenarios - "In Office Later" and "Standing Orders." Regardless of the scenario followed, you will be able to view, edit or perform the waiting orders from Scheduled Orders.

Select the menu item Orders, then select Scheduled Orders.

Scheduled orders will come up in chronological order with the most recent at the top.

• Date - date the order was entered into LabWorks
• Order  - LabWorks order number for this specific order
• Scheduled - Date and time the order was scheduled for
• Name - Patient's name
• ID - The patient's LabWorks ID
• Acct - The number given to your site (so that HealthEast can recognize which site the orders have come from)

By default, LabWorks will display all the scheduled orders, no matter what the date. To narrow down the search for a specific day, click the Search Criteria tab. The most efficient way is to search for the day the scheduled orders are to be performed. (In this example, we searched for 08/07/2010 by clicking on the calendar icons on the Scheduled Date Range.) Click Search.

Note how only one order was found for 08/07/10. From this screen, you can delete, edit or perform the order. Use Edit if you need to change the doctor, tests or ICD-9s. You can also add tests when you perform the order. (In this example we chose the Perform Order link at the bottom of the screen.)

When performing or editing the Scheduled Order, it will look similar to starting a new order but will (should) be filled in with the appropriate information: insurance, tests, ICD-9s and "ask at order" questions.

If the tests are correct and nothing needs to be added, click Continue.

If the ICD-9s look good, click Continue.  (Depending on the billing type, you may not need ICD-9s.)

If there are any questions pertaining to the test you will see the question(s) listed. Click Continue. You wiill then get your labels and requisition for that order.

When complete, the Send Orders link will be available at the top. Click the link to send these orders to the HealthEast lab.
