Dr. Brian Tierney's nurse, Jennifer, reported her surgeon's frustrations with our application not displaying all of his cases for the day in the Surgeon's Daily Schedule. He must see all surgery cases where he is the primary surgeon (all block types) and the referring physician.

Yesterday, based on SSM, Dr. Tierney thought his day was done at 1 p.m., but he wasn't done until after 8 p.m. because SSM doesn't display cases where he is the referring surgeon.

Per Dr. Martin: (Solutioning Ideas)

• Question—Does the "Referring" physician come through the SIU feed? What about Consulting, secondary, etc.? Different ministries call it something else.

• The referring office would display the referring case as a "Referral" case for View ONLY.

• The referring office would receive all updates made by the primary office, but the referring office would not have access to update the case.
