Jim,
Before Bert talked me into using an Excel sheet I developed a template in the PMH called "Interventions". Under that heading I tracked mammograms, colonoscopies,vaccinations, eye exams, etc. as well as anything else a particular patient needed tracking, such as follow-up scans for AAA. I still use this and update it as needed and find it to be extrememly useful because it is there on every note, right in front of me, with little chance of being deleted. But now I also use an Excel sheet to track labs and diabetic quality of care issues. I also have another Excel sheet (page 2) for charting all in-house labs such as urines, chemsticks, etc. This has been a great help other than the fact it means changing screens and waiting for the Excel page to load (which is slow). I tried using the "Tracked data" feature in AC and hated it.
