Ambulatory Ultrasound Order Work-flow

On May 16, 2025

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).

ERM MMA Order Set

In Protocols

Please use the ERM MMA order set (see photo below) that is embedded in our HBS admit order set. If it’s not ordered on admission, then you can still order it during the hospitalization using .ermmma
Please avoid ordering norco or Percocet. If a patient is taking this chronically and you are continuing for admission, then please decouple and order oxycodone plus ATC Tylenol.
Please educate patients on the importance of using ATC medications. You could mention that ATC Tylenol provides enough analgesia that the patient may not need opioids at all. Some of the outliers we are seeing have the correct orders, but because the patient refused the ATC medication, it was captured as an outlier.
