As your Quick Set for a specific problem grows, you may want to use the Quick Set "by exclusion," meaning you check Quick Set, and then clear individual items you don't need for the patient. The application displays items within the Quick Set by their display name in the Orderable Item dictionary in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. When you check Quick Set, Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR automatically checks all the orders for the selected protocol and adds them to the accumulator section. For medication orders, the appropriate DUR and Medication Details screens display for each individual medication listed on the protocol. You can cancel each medication from the DUR and Medication Details screens, and the application clears the checkmark and removes it from the accumulator section. 104 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Workflows Note: The Quick Set protocol should be a well-structured list of orders specific to the treatment of the problem and not a comprehensive list of all potential treatments applicable to the problem that you can pick from. An ideally structured protocol allows you to reasonably select all the orders simultaneously because together they comprise a correct treatment plan for the problem. 6. (Optional) You can also order items using your favorites list or Quick List items. On the Assessment and Plan screen, tap 1 of [x] next to Quick Sets, and then select Quick List Favorites. Select individual items. As you select items, the application adds them to the accumulator at the top of the screen. 7.

When a user orders items, adds allergies, prescribes medications, or performs other clinical activities through November 06, 2014 131
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters Wand, the application performs DUR checking and displays relevant warnings and information in line with functionality available through Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. All configuration related to DUR checking is performed within Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. For more information, see the Application Design and Behavior Resource. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR assumes that the organization has the default settings for DUR checking; the application does not look at the preferences configured in TWAdmin>Org Setup>Enterprise>DUR. The text of the alerts displayed in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR and the data and conditions triggering those alerts are developed and delivered by Medi-Span. DUR alert types Drug-Drug A Drug-Drug DUR alert occurs when the application detects a potential reaction occurring between different selected medications, such as a medication being ordered and a current medication already prescribed for the patient. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not perform DUR checking on historical immunizations. PAR (Prior Adverse Reaction) A PAR DUR alert occurs when the application detects a reported allergic or adverse reaction for the patient that is caused by a specific medication or medication allergy with the specific medication, similar types of medications, typical reaction, and symptoms. PAR alerts are only performed against medication allergies. The application always generates a DUR alert when the user prescribes any medication for a patient with no allergy information. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not use the Allscripts TouchWorks EHR preference PrescribingWithoutAllergyStatus to engage or suppress this functionality. These warnings are displayed as messages, not DUR alerts, in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Drug-Health State A Drug-Health State alert (or disease alert) occurs when the application detects problems that have ICD-9 or ICD-10 diagnosis codes associated with them that may interfere with the selected medication. Drug-Food A Drug-Food alert occurs when the application detects the patient should avoid consuming certain foods while also taking the prescribed medication or therapeutic equivalent, because it could adversely interfere with the medication therapy. 132 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Workflows Drug-Alcohol A Drug-Alcohol alert occurs when the application detects the patient should avoid consuming alcohol while also taking the prescribed medication or therapeutic equivalent, because it could adversely interfere with the medication therapy. Duplicate Therapy A Duplicate Therapy alert occurs when the application detects that the medication being ordered is the same or therapeutic equivalent to a medication that is currently in the patient s medical record. Dosage A Dosage alert occurs when the application detects that the dosage for the medication being ordered may not be appropriate or available for the patient. The application always generates No dose range available alerts when conditions are appropriate. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not use the Allscripts TouchWorks EHR preference DisplayDoseRangeMissing to limit these types of alerts. Pregnancy A Pregnancy alert (an absolute contraindication) occurs when the application detects that the medication being ordered is not appropriate for a pregnant patient. DUR Alerts screen When the application detects a condition that triggers a DUR alert, the application displays the DUR Alerts screen. This screen allows you to: > Select a reason to override the alert, and then continue with the action Note: The override reason you select applies to all the alerts displayed on the DUR Alerts screen. You cannot select different reasons for individual alerts. This is different from Allscripts TouchWorks EHR functionality. > Read additional information and guidance about each individual alert > Cancel without taking any action and return to the previous screen Cancel Cancels the action, and displays the previous search or details screen. Review icon ( ) Displays the patient s Alerts and Review panels. November 06, 2014 133

Override Reason Indicates the reason why the user is acknowledging the alert and continuing the action. This value is referred to as Reason for Continuing in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. These values are configured in the Ignore Reasons dictionary in TWAdmin>Dictionaries. DUR Alerts Indicates the alert(s) generated by the medication or item and a summary of the interaction. Tap on the alert to display the full text of the alert. This content is provided by Medi-Span. Encounter-Related Documentation Documents Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR allows you to create, edit, and sign/finalize unstructured documents from the ipad device. Note: This documentation is referred to as "unstructured documents" in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not allow you to create or edit structured notes. For more information, see the section below. A document is comprised of a combination of some or all of the following sections: > Chief Complaint > History of Present Illness > Medical History: includes problems, medications, and allergies Note: By default, all patient allergies are cited into documents. > Review of Systems > Vitals > Physical Exam > Procedures > Assessment and Plan 134 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Documentation > Comments Note: By default, all Assessment and Plan information for the current encounter is included in the document. The application does not automatically create a document for each encounter. You can enter information for the Vitals and Assessment and Plan sections without creating a document. However, to create unstructured documentation for the remaining sections, you must create a document from the Encounter screen. Compatibility with Allscripts TouchWorks EHR Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR can create visit documentation. The documentation created has the ability to cite the discrete data previously entered into the chart, such as the patient s allergies, medications, and problem lists. In addition the assessed problems and the orders for those placed in the application are included in the visit documentation. The user can utilize M*Modal, text templates, and keyboard entry to enter the Chief Complaint, Physical Exam, and Review of Systems. The visit documentation created in Wand is visible in the desktop version of Allscripts TouchWorks EHR as soon as the document is created. In the desktop, this document appears as an unstructured document. It can be edited and finalized in the desktop or on the ipad. However, once it is edited in the desktop, there are changes in how it can be edited on the ipad. For organizations who use v10 note, the application enables you to dictate against dictation markers created in those notes on the desktop. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not allow you to edit these v10 notes. In order to create visit documentation, you must use the Wand Encounter screen, which generates a unstructured document in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Turn off Document functionality You can turn off document-related functions in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR. The system administrator must set the following preference in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR, TWAdmin>Preferences: > Wand Document Enabled: Default is Y. When enabled, the Documents button is enabled on the Encounter screen. Otherwise, you can only view documents through the Patient Review screen, and creating documents is not available in Wand. Administrators can set this preference at the enterprise level and then override it for individual users. Note: Setting Wand Document Enabled to N does not prevent users from signing documents. It only prevents new document creation. Document workflows with Allscripts TouchWorks EHR If a document is edited in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR, you cannot edit the document in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR. You can, however, view the document in Wand. November 06, 2014 135
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters Documents that are created in the application can be viewed and edited in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Carefully consider how this potentially affects your organizational workflows. For example, if a nurse normally creates the document, and then the provider completes it, both the nurse and the provider should be working in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR. Select or create a document With an encounter selected, you can select an existing document for the encounter or create a new document. When you first access the Encounter screen, the application displays only the document sections for Vitals and Assessment and Plan. This indicates that no document has been created for the encounter. Note: Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not create the document until you tap Create New Document. It does not create documents automatically. 1. On the Encounter screen, tap Documents. If other RTF documents exist for the encounter, the application displays them in the list, including Version 10 documents that include dictation markers. Otherwise, the only option available is Create New Document. Other documents that have been finalized are displayed in gray text and cannot be selected.

Encounter-Related Documentation If you select a document that is currently open in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR, the application displays a warning and does not open the document. Results of this task With a document in context, the document sections Medical History, Chief Complaint, History of Present Illness, Review of Systems, Physical Exam, Procedures, and Comments are visible. While you don't need to add content for each section, they are all available for selection from the Encounter screen. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR determines the document owner to be: > The encounter owner > If no encounter owner exists (for example, an audit document), then the user who created the document This accommodates organizational workflows where nurses begin documents for providers. Note: In the event that you create a document for a patient, and (after the document is created in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR) the associated document type is changed to not support an electronic workflow, you can still complete and sign the document in the application. However, you will not be able to create future documents with that document type. Select a document type You can select the document type associated with the document in context. Before you begin Document types are defined and configured in the Document Type dictionary in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR displays document types that: > Do not utilize non electronic workflows (NONEW) > Have a manifestation of RTF > You have security rights to view > Are active The default document type is the document type from the most recently edited document that has the same owner, is RTF based, and the owner has access to. If one does not exist, then the default document type is the first document type the owner has access to (alphabetically). Otherwise, there is no default document type. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR verifies that both the user starting the document and the document owner have appropriate security codes for the available document types. Wand checks the users' default organization for these security codes. November 06, 2014 137

Copy forward When you tap on the Document screen, the application displays a list of both documents from which you can copy forward text and text templates. When you "copy forward" text into a document, the application copies text from a selected existing document's section to another document's corresponding section. For example, you can copy the Review of Systems section from a past document to the Review of Systems section in the document in context, and then edit the previous text to accommodate the current encounter instead of starting the section's content from scratch. This can significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to create clinical documentation. Note: Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR limits the sections from which you can copy forward text to only those documents for which you are the owner. You cannot copy forward other provider's text. Documents from which you can copy forward text include the prefix Copy. When you select an existing document, the application inserts the text at the location where the cursor is placed. The newly added text is highlighted. You can then edit and format the text from the Document screen as you would any other text. Work with dictation markers Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR allows you to dictate against dictation markers. You must create a V10 note in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR, insert the dictation markers, and save the note prior to opening it in the application. Wand records dictations using the same quality settings for your user name in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. These values are configured in TWUser Admin>User Admin>Provider Details II. If default dictation format quality settings have not been configured for the user, Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR uses the lowest fidelity in order to keep file sizes small. Caution: If you are working over cellular communications instead of Wi-Fi, it will take longer to transmit dictation files. November 06, 2014 143
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters Your default work type is configured in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR based on your user and site settings. If you have no default work type set in dictation preferences, the default work type is based on the sort order. This task has 6 steps. 1. With a patient selected, access the Encounter screen. 2. Tap Documents. The application displays a list of documents for the current encounter. Documents containing dictation markers are indicated with the Dictation icon ( ). 3. Tap a document with a dictation marker. 144 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Documentation The application displays the Document screen. Existing dictation markers are indicated with blue hyperlinks; after a dictation has been sent, the link is no longer active. 4. Tap a dictation marker. The application displays the dictation controls that allow you to manage recording. 5. Record the selected dictation using the following controls: > Record ( ): Begin recording against the marker. This enables the duration and input level controls. > Pause ( ): Pause recording. Note: If you pause the recording, and then send it, Wand automatically stops the recording prior to sending the dictation file. > Stop ( ): Stop recording. > Input level ( ): Indicates the strength of the input volume. > Delete ( ): Delete the recording (not the dictation marker). > Send ( ): Send the file to the appropriate web service for transcription. When you tap the Send icon, the application disables the HTML link for the dictation marker. If you stop the recording and then begin recording again, Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR combines the two recordings. It does not replace the first recording with the second. Also, the ipad device will not "timeout" (that is, dim and shutdown) while you are dictating. 6. After you send the dictation file, you can tap a different dictation marker in the document in context or tap Done to exit the Document screen and display the Encounter screen. Dictation files are always encrypted even as they are being recorded. They are never on the device in a non-encrypted format, and they are encrypted while in motion to the server as well. The maximum allowable size of the dictation file is 50 MB. November 06, 2014 145
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters Related Screens Document screen You can type or dictate the Chief Complaint, History of Present Illness, Review of Systems, Physical Exam, Procedures, and Comments sections of the document from the Document screen. Cancel When you tap Cancel, the application displays the Encounter screen. It does not save any text that was entered on the Document screen. Header (not labeled) Indicates the section of document you are entering text for or dictating (Chief Complaint, History of Present Illness, Review of Systems, Physical Exam, Procedures, or Comments). Text template icon ( ) When you tap the text template icon, the application displays a list of text templates that you can insert in the document section. Note: The text templates that are available from this list are determined by your specialty, secondary specialty, and favorites in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR displays the template name, followed by the note section and specialty. If specialty is not available, the app displays the group name. Text templates are used to expedite entry of clinical documentation into the patient record. They allow the user to insert text blocks into the document. Once selected, the user can enter additional personalized text to complete the documentation. Text templates are configured in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. The list includes text templates that: > Have TW Module set to Note (structured) > Are mapped to Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR through SSMT When you select a template, the application inserts the text into the document at the point where your cursor was placed. You can then edit the contents of the text. Note: You can enter multiple text templates in one document section. 146 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Documentation In addition to text templates, this icon is also used to copy forward text. Entries in the list with the prefix Copy indicate previous document sections of the same type that you can copy into the document. For example, you can copy the Review of Systems section from a past document to the Review of Systems section in the document in context, and then edit the previous text to accommodate the current encounter instead of starting the section's content from scratch. You can only copy forward section text from documents for which you are the owner. Format text icon ( ) When you tap the format text icon, the application displays the Text Style screen. This enables you to manipulate the selected text's attributes, including color, presentation (bold, italic, underline), size, font, and orientation. Done When you tap Done, the application saves the text entered on the Document screen for the selected document section, and displays the Encounter screen. Recording Level Indicates the input sound level from the microphone. Record/Stop When you tap Record, the application begins recording through the ipad device's microphone. When you tap Stop, the recording stops, and the application renders the text on the Document screen. If your ipad is configured to use Fluency Direct by M*Modal, then the M*Modal icon ( ) is displayed with Record/Stop. Text Style screen You can format individual text elements in a document using the Text Style popover. This applies to the following document sections: Chief Complaint, History of Present Illness, Review of Systems, Physical Exam, Procedures, and Comments. Note: The application uses default text attributes for the ipad device. If you format text in fonts that are not supported by Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR, the EHR substitutes an appropriate font. November 06, 2014 147
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters The application displays the Text Style screen when you tap on the Document screen. The formatting changes apply to the text selected on the Document screen. Text color Allows you to select a different color for the selected text. Allows you to format the selected text with bold text, italicized text, and/or underlined text. 148 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Documentation Allows you to incrementally increase or decrease the font size or set it to a specific font size. Font Allows you to select a specific font by name. Allows you to justify the text on the left, center, or right. You can also fully justify the text (meaning that all rows are the same length). Note Preview screen You can preview the document content output from the Note Preview screen. November 06, 2014 149
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters Cancel When you tap Cancel, the application closes the Note Preview screen and displays the Encounter screen. Sign When you tap Sign, the application closes the Note Preview screen and displays the Signature screen from which you can finalize the current document content and apply visit charges to the encounter. 150 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Documentation Document content (not labeled) Indicates the current document content. This information is read-only. To edit document content, you must do it from the Encounter and Document screens. Hide empty sections When checked, the application hides document sections for which there is no content. When clear, the application displays the section titles for document sections without content. Signature screen You can sign and finalize a document from the Signature screen. You can also apply visit charges to the associated encounter. Cancel When you click Cancel, the application closes the Signature screen and displays the Preview screen without having signed or finalized the document. Review and Alerts icon ( ) When you tap the Review and Alerts icon, the application displays the Review panel or the Alerts panel. You can move between the Review panel and the Alerts panel by tapping. Done When you tap Done, the application: > Adds the user name and the date and time to the Signature section of the document > Saves the document > Changes the status of the document from Unsigned to Signed or Final if the user has sufficient signing authority. Users cannot sign documents as other users. This is why the current user s user name is automatically entered, and it cannot be modified. Multiple users can sign the same document, and if appropriate, the same user can sign the same document multiple times. This is important in cases where documents are routed to other providers to view. Signing the document, and therefore leaving a signature line with a date and time stamp at the bottom of the document, is a good way to record having reviewed a document. November 06, 2014 151
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters User Name Indicates the current user's user name. Password Enter your password. This is the same password you use to log into both Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR and Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Show Password When checked, the application displays the text as you type it in Password. Signature Type Indicates your signature type for the document. The following signature types are available for selection: > Acknowledgment > Administrative > Author > Co-author > Co-participant > Review > Transcription/Recorder > Validation Note: Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR does not use the Allscripts TouchWorks EHR preference Default Signature Display to load a default Signature Type. Make Final When checked, the application will finalize the document when you tap Done. Your default value is specified in the Note Default Make Final preference in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Make Final is disabled if you do not have a high enough Finalization Level for the Document Type or the document is already in a Final state. Authority level for finalization for the document type is defined in the Document Type dictionary in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. A user s Finalization Authority is specified in TWUser Admin in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. 152 November 06, 2014
Encounter-Related Charges Print Clinical Summary icon ( The application generates the Clinical Summary document and prints it based on the document type, site, and provider settings. This process follows automatic printing settings configured in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. The Clinical Summary document includes patient demographic information, reason for visit, treatment plan, vitals, current medications list, current health issues (problems), allergies, and results, as well as contact information for the provider. Note: When the patient's Clinical Summary Communication Method is set to Declined, this icon is disabled. Encounter-Related Charges Introduction to charging in Wand Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR enables you to generate charges while documenting a patient's encounter. Charges generated in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR are inserted in the patient encounter (referred to as saved as draft ), but not submitted for billing. The remaining steps in a client s charge workflows must be performed in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR. Note: Because charges are saved as draft and not submitted from Wand, certain business rules associated with Allscripts TouchWorks EHR (such as the number of encounters/day/patient a provider can bill for) are not validated on the ipad device. Configuring Wand for charging To enable charge functionality in Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR, all the following must be true: > The following preference in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR TWAdmin>Preferences must be configured: Wand Charge Enabled: Default value is N. When enabled, the Charge button is visible on the Encounter screen. Otherwise no charge functionality is available in Wand. Administrators can set this preference at the enterprise level and then override it for individual users. > Allscripts TouchWorks EHR must be configured for charge-related functionality. November 06, 2014 153
Chapter 5 Working with Encounters > The user must be configured as a billing provider in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR.

Visit charge favorites can also be added or removed in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR using the Physician Admin Tool (PAT) through Phys Admin>By Category>Favorites>Visit Charge Favorites. > Procedure Charge Favorites: Includes your (user level) favorite procedure charges. Procedure charge favorites can also be added or removed in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR using the Physician Admin Tool (PAT) through Phys Admin>By Category>Favorites>Procedure Charge Favorites. > Search: Allows you to search the master list of both visit and procedure charges. Visit and procedure charges are configured in Allscripts TouchWorks EHR in the Charge Code dictionary. Enter the search term, and then tap Search.

Encounter-Related Charges Selected charges are checked and accumulate at the top of the screen with any preexisting charges for the encounter. 6. Tap the charge in the accumulator at the top of the screen to apply modifiers. Allscripts Wand for TouchWorks EHR displays the Modifiers screen. This screen includes modifiers in the accumulator applied to the selected charge previously or in the current workflow. 7. Select modifiers: > From the list of available modifiers. This list includes all modifiers for the charge groups assigned to the user, or > Search the list of all modifiers. Allscripts TouchWorks EHR prevents the user from applying more than five modifiers. When you select a modifier, it is checked in the list of modifiers and added to the accumulator at the top of the screen. 8. Tap Done. Modifiers applied from the Modifier screen appear next to the applicable charge code in parentheses (). 9. Enter additional charges and modifiers as appropriate. 10. Tap Next. Wand displays a grid indicating the problems assessed and the charges generated during the encounter. The checkmarks indicate the charges linked to individual problems. In Allscripts TouchWorks EHR, on the Personalize Charge screen in Auto Link of Dx(s) to Charges, you can determine whether all diagnoses automatically link to all procedure charges, only the primary diagnosis automatically links to all procedure charges, or no diagnoses automatically link when charges are added to the procedure charge codes summary. Wand utilizes this same setting to determine the default linking behavior. You can change this linking on the fly from the grid. 11. (Optional) The number of units associated with each charge defaults to one (1). To edit the number of units, tap (1) next to the charge, and then edit the number with the keyboard or spinner. To clear the Units control, tap anywhere on the screen. 12. Tap Done. Results of this task The charges are saved.
