Provider Paging & Critical Result Delivery

How Practices Safely Page Providers and Deliver Time-Sensitive Results

Purpose of This Document

This document explains how CallMyDoc™ is used to page providers and deliver time-sensitive clinical information—such as urgent messages and allergy test results—without relying on ad-hoc phone calls, text messages, or manual escalation.

Why Paging Still Matters in Healthcare

Despite modern EHRs, practices still rely on paging for urgent provider communication, critical test results, and time-sensitive patient issues. Traditional paging methods lack documentation, prioritization, and auditability.

What CallMyDoc Replaces

CallMyDoc replaces manual phone calls to providers, text messages without audit trails, separate paging systems, and informal handoffs such as sticky notes or verbal communication.

Creating a Provider Page

From the CallMyDoc dashboard, staff can create a new session to page a provider, creating a structured and trackable communication thread instead of an undocumented interruption.

Paging a Provider About a Patient

Staff can search for the patient, select a callback number, enter a clear message, mark the page as urgent or routine, and select the provider or on-call clinician.

What the Provider Receives

When providers open the page, they see patient context, the full message, priority level, callback options, and a complete audit trail.

Sending Allergy Results and Lab Findings

Allergy results and lab findings are delivered through the same paging workflow, ensuring critical information is seen and acted on quickly.

Urgent vs Routine Results

Results can be marked as urgent for immediate provider attention or routine for review in the normal clinical workflow, preventing alert fatigue.

Documentation and Accountability

Every page is time-stamped, associated with the patient record, shows when the provider viewed it, and remains searchable for audits.

Why This Improves Patient Safety

CallMyDoc paging ensures no critical result is lost, removes reliance on memory or verbal relay, clarifies ownership of follow-up, and speeds provider response.

Operational Benefits

Reduced staff anxiety around escalation, fewer follow-up calls, consistent communication standards, and elimination of shadow paging systems.

Why CallMyDoc for Paging

CallMyDoc treats paging as a clinical workflow—not an interruption—bringing structure, visibility, and accountability to urgent communication.
