Filters Applied Indicator

The Filters Applied indicator is a quick way to see the filters applied to the Patient MRN Overlay Queue. When filters are applied, the records matching the filter criteria are displayed in the Queue. Change the filters to change the records listed in the Queue.

From the Patient MRN Overlay Queue, select Filters Applied to display the active filters.

Note: The system displays the following label on the Filters Applied button when no filters are applied: No Filters Applied. See the Default Filter Values topic for related information.

Default Filter Values

The Patient MRN Overlay Queue is deployed with the following default values for the Begin Date and Status filters:

  • Begin Date: The default Begin Date is 30 days before the current date.
  • Status: The default Status includes the following record statuses:
    • In Process
    • New
    • On Hold

The default status values indicate records that are suspect because the system did not complete them based on a configured pattern. Records in In Process, New, or On Hold statuses require follow-up.

Apply different filters to change the records listed in the Queue. When you select Clear, the default filter values are restored. See the Apply Filters and Filters - Actions topics for more information.
