Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention The group which will receive the InBasket message to notify users that a patient has clinically significant microscopic hematuria and makes recommendations for follow-up. |
Other: Electronic Trigger Microhematuria Alert
To evaluate the effectiveness of an InBasket Results message in prompting providers to place appropriate follow up orders. The message will notify users that a patient has clinically significant microscopic hematuria and is at high risk for underlying malignancy and will include the official recommendations (imaging with a CT urogram, urology evaluation with cystoscopy).
