Do you have a dictionary build how to bill for EXM?\

Hi All, We recently moved RHIG to pharmacy? I have a few questions that will help with our work flow. 1. Does Blood Bank notify pharmacy when RHIG is needed for a patient? 2. Does the clinical staff check EMR (Meditech 5.67) for test results and call pharmacy for the RHIG? 3. Does BB notify the clinical staff RHIG is needed. 4. If using TAR do you have RHIG orders on status board? Our test profile indicates RHIG eligibility and number of vials needed. The results are available in Meditech EMR. Pharmacy is demanding a notification (phone call) and clinical staff is to busy to check EMR results. When BB dispensed RHIG the clinical staff TAR status board demonstrated it was ready. I would like to have best practice for both clinical and laboratory but it seems that Pharmacy states it is a requirement for direct notification. Thanks,
