New Monkeypox Travel Screening Questions and BPA

For All Registration and Scheduling Staff

Two new travel screening questions have been added under the Communicable Disease Screening section to align with CDC recommendations. If the patient answers yes to either question, indicating symptoms or exposure to monkeypox, you’ll receive a Best Practice Advisory (BPA), guiding you on how to direct the patient. See a screenshot reflecting this change.
