# COVID-19 Identifier

CPRS now displays a patient's COVID-19 status in a banner visible on any CPRS tab as shown below.

In this example, the banner shows that the patient is positive for COVID-19 and the date.

### Patient Status Messages

The messages will be pulled from the function finding found text in the reminder definition linked to the banner. These messages will change as the reminder definition is updated. The status document will be found on the following page:

### Possible COVID-19 Status Error Messages

- Non-existent patient

If you see one of these error messages, please record the patient name and call the help desk for assistance.
