This study evaluates a pragmatic, low-cost quality improvement initiative implemented at a tertiary-affiliated urgent care center (UCC) in New York City, serving a highly multilingual, predominantly non-White population, to improve documentation accuracy for LEP patients. From January to June 2023, triage nurses were trained to apply pink flag stickers on the doors of patients requiring interpreter services and to document language needs in the EPIC EHR system. Weekly error rates, defined as the proportion of patients labeled as \"English-speaking\" with documented interpreter use, were tracked using time-series and segmented regression analysis. Among 6604 encounters, the baseline error rate was 79.3%. One-week postintervention, this rate dropped by 21.1%, though not statistically significant (<i>P</i> = .55). The trend remained variable, underscoring the need for sustained education and engagement. While the intervention was not technology-based, it was designed to overcome practical EHR integration barriers unique to the UCC setting. The approach highlights how modest workflow adjustments drive frontline awareness and prompt action.
