Resident Signature

Office visits completed by a Resident and a Faculty require both physicians’ signature on the document within Centricity EMR. Residents do not have final signing privileges and therefore the document must be routed to the attending faculty physician for final signature. Residents should follow the below workflow for each visit:

Once the resident has completed their note, click End Update within the chart update.
Click New to search for the attending Faculty who will complete the final signature.
Click on the binoculars to search for the Provider to whom the visit will be routed to for final signature. Select Signature as the reason for routing. Click OK.
After a faculty provider has been selected to route the document click Sign Document. Document will be signed with the Resident signature and routed to the faculty for final signature.
The document will have a status of signed in italics until the faculty provider signs the document.
