The purpose of these notifications is to allow you to take appropriate follow-up action. This might involve merely reading new information, or it might involve several actions on your part such as scheduling an appointment, signing a consult, resubmission, etc.
*NOTE:
-
When a comment is added by an UPDATE USER, the alert will only go to the ordering provider (unless additional alert recipients are added).
-
When a comment is added by a SERVICE TEAM member, the alert will only go to the ordering provider (unless additional alert recipients are added).
To initiate the follow-up action, enter VA at the prompt after the view alerts message. In the following example, a user follows up a notification by signing an order:

Enabling Notifications
In many cases Notifications will not come to you automatically. To find out what Notifications you should be getting, you can run the Show Me the Notifications I Can Receive option from the Notifications Management Menu. If this report shows any notifications you want to receive that are disabled, you may enable them with the Enable/Disable My Notifications option.
In this example we run the Show Me the Notifications I Can Receive report and then enable Consult/Request Cancel/Hold, Consult/Request Resolution, and New Service Consult/Request (Notice that Order(s) Require Electronic Signature is already on):
Select Notification Mgmt Menu Option: ?
1 Enable/Disable My Notifications
2 Erase All of My Notifications
3 Set Notification Display Sort Method (GUI)
4 Send me a MailMan bulletin for Flagged Orders
5 Show Me the Notifications I Can Receive

DEVICE: HOME// VAX
Notification List Help Message Page: 1
The delivery of notifications as alerts is determined from values set for:
Users, OE/RR Teams, Service/Sections, Inpatient Locations,
Hospital Divisions, Computer System and Order Entry/Results Reporting.
Possible values include 'Enabled', 'Disabled' and 'Mandatory'. These values
indicate a User's, OE/RR Team's, Service's, Location's, Division's, System's
and OERR's desire for the notification to be 'Enabled' (sent under most
conditions), 'Disabled' (not sent), or 'Mandatory' (almost always sent.)
All values, except the OERR (Order Entry) value, can be set by IRM
or Clinical Coordinators. Individual users can set 'Enabled/Disabled/Mandatory'
values for each specific notification via the 'Enable/Disable My Notifications'
option under the Personal Preferences and Notification Mgmt Menu option menus.
'ON' indicates the user will receive the notification under normal conditions.
'OFF' indicates the user normally will not receive the notification.
Notification recipient determination can also be influenced by patient
location (inpatients only.) This list does not consider patient location
when calculating the ON/OFF value for a notification.

Consult/Request Resolution
This notification is triggered by the Consults package when it determines that a consult is complete.
In the following example, the originating provider receives notifications that consults are complete:
CPRSPATIE (C3456): Completed Consult CAR HOLTER
CPRSPATIE (C1996): *Completed Consult CAR
CPRSPATIE (C8910): Completed Consult PSURG
Enter "VA VIEW ALERTS to review alerts
Select Systems Manager Menu Option:
As a follow-up action, the system displays the Consult/Request and results/report. To initiate the follow-up action, enter VA at the prompt and select the notification you want to follow-up on. After viewing, the system deletes the notification.
Notice the asterisk on the second notification. This means that there are significant findings for that consult.
Consult/Request Updated
This alert is triggered when a comment is added to consult or the consult is scheduled. Comments may be added either with the Add Comment (CM) action or the Schedule (SC) action. The text of the alert is altered depending on which one of these actions initiated the alert as follows:
Adding a Comment #63 "Comment Added to Consult: . . ."
Scheduling #63 "Scheduled Consult: . . ."
As a follow-up action, the system displays the consult with comments. If appropriate, the clinician may write an additional comment or take other actions as needed.
-
When a comment is added by an UPDATE USER, the alert will only go to the ordering provider (unless additional alert recipients are added).
-
When a comment is added by a SERVICE TEAM member, the alert will only go to the ordering provider (unless additional alert recipients are added).
This alert is also used by the Healthcare Claims Processing System (HCPS) to notify VA providers the status of a patient who has been referred to a Non-VA Care provider or facility. When an HCPS user enters a comment in RAS, CPRS is updated. The HCPS user might not be a user in VistA; a proxy user will display for ‘Responsible Person’ and ‘Entered By’ in the CPRS, as shown below:

Special Considerations for Discontinued Orders
When an order is Discontinued, who gets the notification depends on the source of the discontinuation. This is dependent on the NOTIFY ON DC field in file 123.5 for the service to which the consult was directed. This field is set by the Set up Consult Services (SS) command of the Consult Management Option.
If a comment is added to a consult by someone in the receiving service, that person is prompted to send notification to the originator of the consult and to any other persons. Other recipients of this notification are controlled as a New Service Consult.
In the following example, a clinician in the Surgery service has added a comment:
SIMPSON,H (S9999): Comment Added to Consult CARDIOLOGY
Enter "VA VIEW ALERTS to review alerts
Select Consult Management Option:
The follow-up action is to display the orders containing the comments so that you can read them.
-
When a comment is added by an UPDATE USER, the alert will only go to the ordering provider (unless additional alert recipients are added).
-
When a comment is added by a SERVICE TEAM member, the alert will only go to the ordering provider (unless additional alert recipients are added).
Order(s) Require Electronic Signature
If you do not sign a consult at the time you initiate it, the CPRS triggers a notification reminding you of the need for an electronic signature.
In the following example, three notifications are presented for Consults that need an electronic signature:
CPRSPATIE (C3456): Order requires electronic signature.
CPRSPATIE (C4723): Order requires electronic signature.
CPRSPATIE (C3234): Order requires electronic signature.
Enter "VA VIEW ALERTS to review alerts
Select Systems Manager Menu Option:
The follow-up action is to display the orders requiring electronic signature in a CPRS screen so that you can use the Sign action. The system deletes the notification after you have signed the order.
Significant Findings for a Consult
If the status of the Significant Findings Flag is changed in any way, an alert is sent by the Consults package. As far as the recipients and delivery, this notification is treated like a Consult/ Request Resolution.
This alert may be delayed, at the user’s option, until the consult is complete.
In the example that follows, three significant findings notifications are present. One for a completed consult, one for a pending consult, and one for the Significant Findings Flag being turned off on a completed consult:
CPRSPATIE (C3456): Sig Findings for consult CAR
CPRSPATIE (C6572): Sig Findings for consult CAR
CPRSPATIE (C1432): No Sig Findings for consult PLM
Enter "VA VIEW ALERTS to review alerts
Select Systems Manager Menu Option:
The follow-up action is to display the orders that have had a change in the Significant Findings Flag in the CPRS screen so that you can examine them.
