David, The database of the incoming labs doesn't always match the AC database, so sometimes I have to manually match them. I would say this occurs with about 1 of 10 results for me. Is that what you are referring to?
As I posted in another thread,
http://amazingcharts.com/ub/ubbthreads.php/topics/42472/A_programming_question_for_the#Post42472I pre-process the txt file that the HL7 labs from the hospital FTP to my server so that there is no demographics mismatch. Perhaps then you can automate the process.
My gripe is that there is no "last note" view in lab sign off, so I have to go to another computer to see if the patient has an appointment and what I said I would do next. Those data are available on regular Updox sign-offs, why not on labs?
