Where are preference lists linked within the system?

Preference lists are essential tools within the EpicCare system as they allow users to customize and streamline their order entry process. These lists can be linked directly to a user's profile, specifically under the Outpatient Orders Preference Lists section. This location provides a tailored experience for individual clinicians or staff members, enabling them to quickly access frequently used orders or procedures, which enhances efficiency and reduces the time spent navigating the system.

Within the context of the other options, while user settings and preferences might involve configurations related to personal setups, they do not specifically relate to the clinically relevant aspect of linking preference lists for outpatient orders. Reports under Preferences primarily focus on data analysis rather than on setting up how orders are accessed or executed. Therefore, the choice to locate preference lists under the outpatient orders section of the profile is not only logical but also critical in a clinical setting for ensuring that providers have the most relevant tools readily at hand.
