I have no problem with the diagnosis showing up, that is if I can find the ICD-9 code. The lab and I both liked the fact I could type in the diagnosis.
I know a lot of people don't like the orders. I can only speak for myself. For me, it is for what I wrote.
This is clearly one of those love them/hate them kind of thing. In those instances, preferences or options really help:
1. Option to completely get rid of a category
2. After entering diagnosis, allow
http://icd9cm.chrisendres.com/ to pop up to find the correct ICD-9 code
3. Allow panels of labs that can be done as a list and not a sentence. Our lab doesn't like that.
4. Automatically check the box when you add a lab. Why would you add a lab and then not select it.
5. It should make no difference which is checked first (ICD-9 or the lab)
6. Give the option of using free text for diagnosis after you have looked for five to ten minutes or patient starts to look at their watch.
By the way, I am confused with the numbering system unless it has something to do with the 3.1, 3.2, etc. They all are listed in alphabetical order. Or do you want the most common at the top.
Jon told a few of us on the phone that he needed to work on the orders.
