Letter from Note

Hi,

We generate a lot of referral letters for example and discharge statements. Most of these start off as notes.

We would like to propose a "Create Letter from Note" or "Create Letter from Visit" button we can press that we can use to streamline this process.

The idea would be that we could select a single (or multiple) notes, or a visit in the medical records screen or edit visit screen and then click this button. You could select a Letter that the text could be dropped into....

Obviously there needs to be some more thought behind this (what happens if you have multiple input fields, etc.

But it would considerably improve our current workflow if we can get this right.

Feedback? Comments? Useful to others (particularly those in referral practice)?

Thanks,

Adrian

Re: Letter from Note

Hi Adrian,

We would use this (not referral but a busy hospital).

 

I had imagined being able to edit a document in one window and the letter in the other.

We currently use the "Open a new instance" button in the top right and then Alt-Tab between windows with heavy use of Ctl-C and Ctl-V.

The ability to launch a letter window from a single click within a visit though... now thats quite cool.

1. Select Visit

2. Click To Letter

3. Select Letter template (Configurable Default for Visit Letter button already selected)

4. Contents of Note perhaps in either;

a) Clipboard ready for pasting into letter field of choice (Preferable?)

b) Pre populated in first letter field
