EpicCare Inpatient Fundamentals (INP100) Practice Test

In the Admit Orders process, which tool is used to insert free text when information is missing?

Wildcard SmartLink SmartList Flowsheet

Correct Answer:

Wildcard

Explanation:

When information is missing in an Admit Order, you use a wildcard. A wildcard acts as a placeholder that lets you enter free text directly into the order, so you can document the missing details or notes even when there isn’t a predefined value to select. This keeps the workflow moving and preserves the clinician’s intent for the order. SmartLink is for inserting standardized blocks of text or data linked to the patient, SmartList offers a curated set of predefined options to choose from, and Flowsheet is a grid view for recording and reviewing patient data over time. None of these are the placeholder tool used to capture free-text notes in an Admit Order.
