Results (Labs & Imaging)
The Results tab is the Dashboard inbox for lab and imaging result documents that need review. Filter by All, Critical, Labs, or Imaging, then Sign, archive, or create follow-up work from the row.

Results Tab (All, Critical, Labs, Imaging)
Heading All Results. Use filters to focus critical or modality-specific items, then act from the row actions.
Results is the Action Center inbox for lab and imaging result documents that need review. Filters help you focus critical items or a single modality without leaving Dashboard.
Each row is one result document. Work Sign, Create Task, Archive, and related actions from the row; open View when you need the full result content.
- Filters: All · Critical · Labs · Imaging.
- Row fields: result title, urgency badge (for example CRITICAL / URGENT), patient name/age/MRN, result text, time ago.
- Highlighted actions: View, AI Preview (when shown), Sign / Signed, Referral, E-Prescribe, Order, Create Task, Archive.
- Counts follow the same Practice / Location(s) as the header.
- Use Create Task when follow-up work belongs to another staff member.
Important
Do not use Results as a substitute for the Services appointment tab.
Results vs Services appointments
Results documents are not Services schedule visits. Signing a result reviews the document; it does not check in a patient on Today's Schedule.
Today's Schedule → Services lists Clinic Services Types appointments (lab or imaging slots you booked). Action Center → Results lists lab/imaging result documents waiting for review. Booking a service visit and reviewing a returned result are different jobs.
Signing here reviews the result document. Check-in, rooming, and checkout still run on the left schedule card for the appointment. To book a lab/imaging appointment slot, use Appointments → Services—not the Results inbox.
- Services (left) = Clinic Services Types appointments on Today's Schedule.
- Results (right) = lab/imaging result documents to review.
- Sign on Results reviews the document—it does not check in a patient.
- Day-of status for a service visit still runs on the schedule card.
- Book lab/imaging slots on Appointments → Services, not from Results.

Sign, Create Task, and Archive
Use row actions to review a result, hand off follow-up work, or clear items you are done with.
Sign (or Signed when already done) is the reviewer action for the result document. Create Task opens follow-up work for another staff member when permitted. Archive removes the item from the active Results list when you are finished with it.
Other row actions such as View, Referral, E-Prescribe, Order, or AI Preview appear when the clinic and your role allow them. Prefer Create Task over leaving unsigned results for work that belongs to someone else.
How to do it
- Open Dashboard → Action Center → Results.
- Filter All, Critical, Labs, or Imaging as needed.
- Find the row and click View if you need the full result content.
- Click Sign to review the result document (or confirm Signed if already done).
- Optional: Create Task when follow-up belongs to another staff member.
- Archive when you are finished with the item in this inbox.
- Sign / Signed: review the result document from the row.
- Create Task: hand off follow-up work when permitted.
- Archive: clear an item from the active Results list when finished.
- View opens the result content; other actions appear by role and clinic setup.
- Signing Results is not the same as Sign Note under Documents pending review.
