Bruce,

I made an Excel sheet which I keep on the server. Then each computer station has a shortcut on the desktop to that file (because it is easier for the staff to find it and it means they do not have to risk going to the server and perhaps messing things up). Into every chart then, this plain Excel sheet is imported, under the lab heading, and it can be added to and saved within AC. Every morning, my staff goes through the list of patients with appointments that day to see if they have had any new labs or tracked studies done and they update the flowsheet. If I am seeing a diabetic, I will at the time of the appointment check off on that sheet what quality of care points I have performed. I will forward you my file Monday when I get back to the office.
