The new cancellation reasons are: Lack of Transportation, Cancelled via Interface, Patient Seen Out of System, and Improper Patient Prep.

The list of Cancellation Reasons displayed in Epic@UNC’s Cadence Scheduling application were previously consolidated to reduce ambiguity and improve reporting capabilities. The four new Cancellation Reason options added on Feb. 2 are the result of feedback from users to the Operational Improvement and Workflow Implementation Team.

Details on all of the cancellation reasons available in Epic@UNC after Feb. 2 are available in a ‘Cancellation Reasons Quick Reference Guide’ (Intranet link). If you have any questions about the new cancellation reasons or need assistance with this workflow, email .
