Are you talking about custom chart review filters? Also not sure why that's blocked, I use those a lot and we can copy them from other user profiles without going through IT. But yes to have this be a default for new users we still need IT approval which no one has bothered with.
This sounds like draconian institutional policies are the limiting factor.
Draconian institutional policies are indeed an issue. WiFi calling is blocked, despite the fact that a significant part of our first floor has zero cell signal.
If you get bored, PM me and we'll set up a time where I can show you some samples. I'll need a few days to sanitize them of identifiable info.
Still, sad that I have to go to HN and actual tech workers in completely different places to figure out how to use a system that is nominally under control of my own hospital. I don't blame you for not giving doctors admin access; I don't need it and quite a few would make a total hash of things, but I'm a lot more curious and a nice free playground where I could do things like schedule cases would be fun. If I break it, so what? It will reset tomorrow, and I'm fine with that. If I have a play day, I'll apply my notes for everything I have done and ask the IT team to make a snapshot.
Again, thanks.
Some places are better, most institutions I've been at have given me full access because I have a tech background and had a previous relationship with Epic but occasionally I've hit similar brick walls to you.
Hope it works out.
And if a guy who has their own IT staff telling them it can't/won't happen, despite actual onsite EPIC staff saying it's entirely possible, you see why. When you tell users to go away, and tell interested users that they can't share their improvements, not even privately, you are doing a disservice and you owe me at the least an explanation of why doing it is bad. Maybe there's a good reason that I should be allowed to mess my own system up but not let anyone else enjoy it that way, but I struggle to understand why. The whole thing can be re-imaged if I screw up too badly, after all.
