Exemplary embodiments of the present invention perform workflow and communications logging functions in a hospital radiology department, free-standing imaging center, or other institution providing imaging services. The exemplary embodiments allow logging of communications and attempted communications both within the department and with personnel outside the department. The logs permanently memorialize the communications and can be viewed with the patient's other computerized records. The exemplary embodiments also assign and tracks the status of work as it progresses through a multi-step process. The exemplary embodiments generate and update lists of assigned tasks for the various individuals involved in providing radiology services to patients. For radiologists, the task lists are created by filtering the lists of cases available for interpretation. The lists are updated to reflect the current pending cases in real time. Users can query the system to determine the exact status of any case. Additionally, the system permits computer-based communications to accompany radiological studies throughout the process.

A computer implemented medical event notification system and method for a healthcare facility is provided. The system includes at least one user computer and at least one computer server operatively coupled for communication over a computer network. The computer server operates at least a portion of a medical notification software tool and has access to a patient record database containing a plurality of patient records. The method includes a step of monitoring the plurality of patient records by the medical notification software tool for at least one predetermined event; and includes one or both of the following steps: (a) upon detecting the occurrence of the at least one predetermined event by the medical notification software tool, automatically pushing a notification of the detected predetermined event occurrence to an authorized user of the medical information even notification system; and (b) upon detecting the non-occurrence of the at least one predetermined event by the medical notification software tool in a predetermined window of time, automatically pushing a notification of the detected predetermined event non-occurrence to an authorized user of the medical information event notification system. A critical element to this system and method is that the notification is automatically “pushed” to the authorized user; that is, the authorized user is not required to query the system for the occurrence or non-occurrence of the event.
