Which search methods can physicians use to find new orders in the Orders activity?

• A. EnRol, Synonyms, Preference Lists
• B. Keyword search only
• C. Refill list only
• D. Manual browse only

Answer: (A)

The idea is that finding new orders in the Orders activity isn’t limited to typing a single keyword. Clinicians can use several search aids to locate the right order quickly: EnRol, Synonyms, and Preference Lists. EnRol helps you search using the patient’s enrollment or clinical context, guiding you to orders that are relevant to that specific encounter or service. Synonyms expand findability by mapping different names for the same medication or order so you can locate it even if you type an alternative term. Preference lists are saved collections of commonly used orders or order sets, letting you pull up familiar items without re-searching each time. Using these together speeds discovery and improves accuracy, whereas relying on a single method (like a keyword search only or browsing alone) can be slower or miss items that are named differently or are routinely used for that patient.
