2. Introduction to Patient Lists
Using Patient Lists in PowerChart will help you to easily organize and access large amounts of patient data.
Patients Lists are manually created by the user. Once the user defines the criteria for the Patient List (all patients not discharged from Chesapeake Pediatrics – Oakbrooke, for example), the system matches all of the patients that meet the user-defined criteria and adds them to the Patient List.
For custom Patient Lists, the user can manually add or remove patients that he/she wants to appear on the List.

The Organizer
The Organizer is the “Home” of Patient Lists. From the Organizer, you can create lists, manage / view existing lists, and delete lists.
From the Organizer you also have access to Message Center, Scheduling, and Task Lists.
