Multiple providers on a patient care team can sign off the same document sent by the encounter provider to each designated signee's Provider Approval Queue (PAQ) Pending PAQ tab in the Workflow module. Only the encounter provider or the provider's delegate can initiate multi-user signoff and select additional signees. The multi-user signoff document is read only and remains in Pending status until all the designated signees or their delegates have signed it.
