I have had Bruce's problem for quite some time. He's right that once you sign the chart, you're hosed. Just seems that it should be an option to be able to "unlock" a note to correct typos...at least by the ADMIN.
Although all of the work-arounds with Word are fine and dandy, I despise having another program open to perform a task and then have to copy/paste/save/whatever into another program. It needs to be integrated into AC...period. I shouldn't have to have another program to work a true EMR. There are a few people who don't purchase Microsoft Office routinely, believe it or not.
It's a big weakness. The freaking thing is CCHIT certified and HiTech certified and Bert certified....blah, blah, blah. We just want it to work intuitively, simply, and do the most basic tasks that we do every day. Yes, I'm a broken record.
