<b>What:</b> Upstate is implementing the Epic ‘Beaker’ lab system.</div>

<b>Why: </b>This change eliminates several back-end interfaced systems and replaces them with a single, fully integrated Epic lab solution to improve patient safety and efficiency.</div>

<b>When: </b> Electronic lab and blood ordering will be unavailable on Saturday, June 21st at 12AM. While Epic itself will be available, all orders for labs and blood must be placed on paper following normal downtime procedures. Electronic lab ordering is
expected to become available at about 4AM and blood ordering expected to become available at about 6AM.</div>

<b>How:</b> There are virtually no changes to the orders you will use, but some questions within each order will change, particularly the ‘Specimen Type’ and the ‘Specimen Source’. In most instances, the Epic team has been able to default to the appropriate
new selections. <b>You may find that a small number of items selected from your preference list generate a ‘required information’ Hard Stop</b>. If this is a frequent order, you may want to consider saving it to your preference list with your preferred choices.</div>
