Ticklers are a format of internal communication within the OSCAR PRO EMR. They allow you to set reminders and tasks with a specified date to receive the notification. These Tasks/Ticklers can be assigned to a single provider on the system, including yourself!
Preferences:
- Ability to set Filter Ticklers Assigned To You By Default:
- Ability to set a default Tickler recipient:
Creation:
- Ticklers can be created from a number of locations throughout OSCAR
- Some locations are from the Tickler tab on the schedule, from a patient Master Record or from their eChart, and finally from the Inbox
- Please note that from the PRO Inbox, the Tickler is renamed to Task
- The Suggested Text option allows for clinics to customize their text messages available to aid in the Ticklers created
Tickler Management:
- A Search can be completed under the Tickler tab at any time
- From the tickler tab, the patient chart can be opened to complete the Tickler
When making adjustments to an existing Tickler, the Edit button can be utilized to enter in new messages, update the status as well as reply to other providers
By updating the Ticklers to the Completed status, then only Active Ticklers would remain under the Tickler tab. Please be aware that Ticklers in RED are overdue, and ones in BLACK are new, or not active yet.
