All outpatient CT and MRI ordering (including Cardiac CT) will now be done in KPHC as we transition away from eConsult. Here is a brief job aide on ordering — it is very similar to U/S ordering that we already do.
If you have any issues, please contact GSAA Site Support at 510-675-KPHC (5742)
Please discontinue preexisting orders on newly transitioned COMFORT CARE patients !
Just add .COMFORTCARECULTURES at RN order communication .
The nurse will call the local lab to remove and cancel any existing comfort care cultures orders .
It would really help to decrease the incidence of HAI !
WORKFLOW to decrease the number of cultures processed on comfort care patients and prevent HAI.ppt
Features that were delayed on the previous KPHC will now be released on 9/2/2025. There will be downtime between 1am-2:30am that day. Please refer to downtime procedure protocol here.
Notable updates:
When selecting an existing lab, procedure, or imaging order in a clinical encounter, click Order Again from the toolbar or right-click menu to create and place a new order with the same details or with details from your preference list. Orders placed in an inpatient context is reorderable only if it is from the same inpatient admission as the current encounter.
You can now quickly reorder tests and procedures while reviewing results in the Results Review activity.
If you often filter Results Review to see only results that are relevant for reviewing a certain diagnosis or plan of care, save that filtered view so you can use it again in the future with just a click. Views can be useful when you want to quickly narrow your view to just the results you care about when you’re reviewing a specific diagnosis, or when you want to exclude certain commonly resulted components to help you focus on detailed trends in other results. In addition to creating and using your own personal views, you can use views shared by your peers
Removed participants are notified and can be added back using the normal process or they can return themselves to the conversation later using Rejoin. Note: Either way they will have access to all messages including those that occurred when they were not in the chat.
The return-to-work guidance for health care workers coming back from SARS-COV-2 (COVID-19) infection has been updated based on new recommendations from the California Department of Public Health (CDPH). The changes have been reviewed and approved by the Regional Infection Control Committee and other key KFHP/H and TPMG stakeholders. The attached new guidance includes the following:
Haiku Authentication Time Period Extended
When: July 9, 2025
What: Currently when using Haiku, you must authenticate with your NUID/password in addition to FaceID after 24 hours, but starting on July 9th, the time period will be extended to 7 days instead of 24 hours.
We have transitioned from eConsult to KPHC/Cadence for ordering, direct booking, and appointment scheduling of many of the general ultrasound exams that are presently ordered from the eConsult specialty of Rad-Outpt ULS. Please note that not all ultrasound orders are being migrated at this time. The table below outlines which ultrasound orders will be directly placed in KPHC and which will continue to require an eConsult referral and a KPHC order (current state).
You are allowed to split your expenses such as Lodging with another colleague when you attend CME provided you sign an attestation or something similar to link below (feel free to modify the document to capture the details for your situation).
CIS migration update will occur on Saturday April 5th, 2025
Around 1am – 5am: Downtime/Downtime Recovery
While cortext is still available, the ask is to use chart chart for communication with subspecialists (except those outside of the GSAA) until the migration.
During the migration, pending orders and any customizations in health connect will not be carried over. Please be sure to sign any pending orders or notes.
