If you see the icon below (the pencil with the red line through it) it signifies that the Deficiency has been locked and you will be unable to edit or sign that deficiency.

To prevent a deficiency from locking:

• Sign off on all deficiencies in one sitting.

-OR-

• If opting to edit and or sign a deficiency at a later time click on the Tasklist button to exit the deficiency processing window. Clicking on the Tasklist button will properly log you off the Deficiencies processing page and will prevent the locking of that deficiency.

Please contact the Physician Support Liaisons at (815)759-4330 for any questions or concerns.
