In Instinct EMR and Instinct EMR for Primary Care, the Notifications page is a central place to view and manage alerts about activity in your practice.

Written by Melissa Duarte

Access the Notifications page

Select the Notifications icon in the left navigation panel to open the Notifications page. When there are unread notifications, a red circle with the number of unread notifications will be displayed in the left navigation panel.


Types of Notifications

  • Integration Services: notifies you when an integration's services refresh has completed (e.g., Radiology modalities).

    • Select the View Integration Services button (in the Actions column) to go directly to the Services page within the Integrations settings to review what's changed.

    • The user who selects the Refresh Services button within Admin → Integrations will receive the Integration Services refresh notification.

  • Direct Booking: notifies you when a pet owner books an appointment through the Pet Owner Portal.

    • Direct Booking notification settings are configured within Admin → Pet Owner Portal → SettingsNotification Recipients.

  • Comm Log Email: notifies you when a Comm Log email you tried to send does not go through to the recipient.


Search and filter your notifications

Use the search bar to find a specific notification, or use the Filter By drop-down menus to narrow results:

Filter by Status

  • Unread — notifications you have not viewed yet

  • Read — notifications you have already viewed

Filter by Type

  • Integration Services

  • Direct Booking

  • Comm Log Email

Note: Direct Booking notifications are only visible to practices with the Direct Booking feature enabled. Additional notification types will be added in future releases.


Notification Actions

From a notification, you can navigate to the relevant page. Select the Action listed to go directly to the related area of the app.

For example, for notifications related to Direct Booking, the Action listed will be View Booking. Selecting View Booking will lead you to the calendar to view the recently booked appointment details.
