Khaled,

FYI... I'm pretty new to AC myself. I did six procedures this morning, and using the process noted above it took about half an hour to import the scope notes, and send brief notes and copies of the report itself to the patients (most of which is the time to send the reports over the wire to UpDox.) The notes to the patient for most basic procedures are easy to template, and I'm getting very positive feedback from patients that they can get the whole report and note immediately after getting home. A bright assistant could likely handle all of the routine studies for you, but I kind of like doing it and I don't want to dump more on my staff yet.
