Edits/Corrections

Please contact Transcription Services with your edit/corrections.

After the report is transcribed (available in the PCIS)

If your report has a typographical error, missing information, addendum, or an error impacting patient care, please:

Please email transcriptionalerts2@vch.ca for any edits regarding your report. Note the error in your email (Please do not include patient information (i.e PHN, MRN) in the email).
If you have used eSig or FESR and the report has been signed, you would need to follow the same process of faxing in the changes. After the changes have been made, the corrected report will appear in your inbox for re-signature.

Adding an Addendum

To add information to an existing report, you will need to dictate an addendum to the report. This can be done by stating the original job number (if possible) and all patient identifiers.

Addendums can only be added to a report by the originating author. "Addendums" by another dictating author will be created as a separate report.
