To simplify the process for the ordering physician
a super order was created designated as the IR OP (outpatient) request
The super order organized the large number of possible
procedure requests into 14 clinical categories that were
designed to focus the search. A second layer of drop-down
choices was then provided to get the consultation as close as
possible to the correct request. Several comment fields were
incorporated for clarification of any remaining details. To
order a procedure for an inferior vena cava (IVC) filter removal,
the ordering provider would only have to enter “IR
Procedure” to launch the super order, select IVC filter from
the 14 clinical categories, and then select IVC filter removal
