Clinician Dashboard
Sign Column Introduction

Icons in the Sign column (graphic) indicate that patients have documents that require your signature or co-signature. Care Management also displays icons in this column if someone has identified you as an additional signer.

Note: Remember, you cannot sign a document until you have entered all required encounter data. If a document requires encounter data, Care Management does not display the Sign checkbox. Instead, it notifies you that encounter data may be required. In this case, click the Go to Chart to Sign Document link, which takes you to the patient's chart in CPRS (graphic). If encounter data are required, you can then enter these data in CPRS. For information about how CPRS determines whether or not encounter data are needed, see the "Encounter Parameters" section of the Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) Technical Manual.
