Is it possible to unfile a lab report once it has been filed, and how do I do this in EMIS Web?

In EMIS Web, it is possible to unfile a lab report once it has been filed if it was done so in error or if it needs reevaluation. This process can be efficiently conducted through the Lab Reports section in the Workflow Manager.

How to Unfile a Lab Report

To unfile a report, you must first access the Lab Reports in EMIS Web:

• Click the EMIS Web menu and navigate to Workflow Manager.
• From the navigation pane, select Lab Reports and then click on Inbox.

In the Inbox, all filed reports are displayed:

• Select the report you wish to unfile.
• Click Unfile in the ribbon tool above the reports pane.

Once unfiled, the report reverts to its previous state and can be reassigned or reviewed as necessary.

This functionality significantly enhances practice efficiency by allowing the rectification of filing errors promptly, ensuring patient records remain accurate and reliable.

By using the unfile option, practices can maintain accurate patient information and prevent any potential complications arising from mistakenly filed reports. This feature supports the delivery of safe and effective patient care.
