Does deleting a test request from the Workflow Manager also remove it from the patient’s consultation record?

Deleting a test request from the Workflow Manager in EMIS Web will also remove the corresponding entry from the patient's consultation record. This dual deletion ensures that the patient's record reflects only current and relevant information, maintaining the clarity and integrity of the data.

Steps to Delete a Test Request:

  • Access the Test Requests through the EMIS Web Workflow Manager.
  • Select the desired test request from the list displayed in the right-hand pane.
  • Click on the Delete Test Request option in the ribbon.
  • Confirm the deletion when prompted.

Before deleting a test request, consider if any information needs to be noted or communicated to colleagues to ensure continuity of care and coordination within the clinical team.

"Deleting unnecessary test requests not only streamlines the workflow but also helps maintain cleaner patient records, reducing administrative overhead and better supporting clinical decision-making."
