Last week, you read about Storyboard, a redesigned patient workspace<\/a> for all roles, coming with the Epic upgrade on August 2, 2020<\/strong>. Key patient information now appears on the left side of the screen, and common activities appear at the top. But that\u2019s not all: the new Storyboard on the left side of the screen is also interactive, showing more information with just a hover instead of a click.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In this example, a clinician can see there is a new lab result right from Storyboard. Without a click, the clinician can hover over the lab alert to see the specific result and result components. <\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 <\/em><\/p>\n

In this example, a biller can see that there is a hold on the statement. Without a click, the biller can hover over the alert to see the hold reasons and other billing indicators.<\/em><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re like most Epic users, you don\u2019t like clicks. Here are just a few examples that illustrate the before-and-after change to your experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We hope it\u2019s becoming clearer that Storyboard is a positive, time-saving change. We recommend that you prepare for the new look and feel. The change is not reversible after the upgrade for any role. If you\u2019ve been an Epic user for some time, your muscles are programmed to point and click in certain places, in a certain order. The new layout may take some getting used to. There are several ways for you to learn more about what\u2019s coming and to try out Storyboard:<\/p>\n
