Important Update on Pager Services

All canceled pagers MUST be returned to avoid lost device fees!

School of Medicine and UCHealth are transitioning from handheld pagers to Epic paging solutions. Therefore, we are in the process of discontinuing pager services. For further information and to begin using Epic, please contact support@medschool.zendesk.com. For hospital resources, visit https://medschool.cuanschutz.edu/graduate-medical-education/resources/hospital-resources.

To ensure you are supported in this transition, the OIT Pager desk:

  • Will be operating part-time, with hours of operation subject to change. Please plan your clinical shifts accordingly, as we may be unavailable to make changes (such as message forwarding).
  • Will no longer be activating new pagers or issuing exchanges.
  • If you need an emergency loaner, follow the instructions below.
  • Will continue processing pager cancellations using these steps.

Please see the list below for further information.

  • For all pager-related questions, please email oit-pagers@cuanschutz.edu or call the Pager Desk at 303.724.0400. 
  • All canceled, lost, or found returned pagers must be turned in to the OIT Pager Office (at the location above) and placed in the RETURNED PAGER box or be sent via inter-campus mail to Mail Stop F408.
