Viewing Flags and Alerts

If the patient has one or more clinical warnings (flags) or alerts in his/her record a Flags button will display above the Demographics widget on the Patient Portal.

Click the Flags button to open the Patient Flags & Postings dialog box. This window displays a list clinical warnings and alerts within the patient’s record similar to the example shown below. VA alerts with an assignment narrative will have a link that opens the full text of the narrative in a separate window.

Note: If the patient’s record does not contain any flags or alerts, the button will not display on-screen.
