The Include Physician Number in Signature Text setting controls whether signers' signatures include their configured Physician Numbers in deficiencies.

Note:

This option does not apply to physician acknowledgement stamps. For information about acknowledgement stamps, see the Integration for Epic documentation.

If this setting is enabled, signatures include both the configured Signature Text and the Physician Number, as shown in the following example:

Physician Stamp reading "Electronically Signed By: FRANK PIERCE #879712 on 09/25/2024 02:51".

If this setting is disabled, signatures omit the Physician Number. The only means of identifying the physician are in the configured Signature Text, as shown in the following example:

Physician Stamp reading "Electronically Signed By: FRANK PIERCE on 09/25/2024 02:51".

Before disabling this setting, ensure all signing physicians have Signature Text configured in Physician Information Settings.

Note:

Until burned, existing deficiencies reflect the setting in effect when the deficiencies were created or last modified. When the deficiencies are burned, they reflect the setting in effect at the time of burning.
