Abstract: A method and system for a mini-screen dashboard is described with reference to healthcare workflow processes where multiple healthcare providers work together to manage their patients. The status criteria for patients is collected in one or more healthcare workflow databases accessible by the clinicians according to their various roles and functions using corresponding workflow applications. A central computer determines the number of patients that correspond with various status criteria of the patients that are already being monitored by the clinicians and the mini-screen unobtrusively displays the number patients that meet the status criteria in a series of indicator boxes that remain in the foreground of the clinicians' respective computer screens. The mini-screen dashboard is semi-transparent, becoming opaque when a box is selected and displaying the heading name of the status criteria corresponding with the selected box and also displaying the names of the patients satisfying the status criteria.
