Home Forums Discussions Problems Deleteing a Progress Note, Patient, Anything

Short answer...you can't.
I deal with a duplicate note or note in the wrong chart by adding an addendum. That can either be appended to the end of the note or inserted separately. I tend to do both so it shows up both at the end of the note AND in the "previous encounters" section.
You can't delete a patient but you can "inactivate" them from their demographics page. (Or you can go to "Add a patient", select the patient in the list at left, and click "inactive patient").
It has been suggested that there be a method to "draw a line through" an erroneous note/encounter, without erasing, like one might due with paper. This would seem to reduce errors. No idea if that feature will ever appear.
