The following updates have been made to the workflow for E0 Case Scheduling, affecting STAT Labor and Delivery Cases and all other STAT Surgical Cases, as seen in the respective swimlane diagrams (click image to enlarge). The largest change for prescribers is that an identified care team can now be designated to call the appropriate surgical desk to request a STAT case if the Surgeon is occupied caring for the patient.
