Id like to see the Present Encounters Page divided such that the chart's LEFT side contins all the fields that ( a) stay constant (Family History, Social History,etc ) or (b) contain lists that are constantly updated and referred to (Medication List, Problems list, Intervention list).
The RIGHT side of the chart contains the components unique to each new encounter and that will change with each visit- Subj, Object, Asmnt, PLan & Meds .
Bert - you once mentioned SOAPware - this is also their basic layout and itis nicely structured
The layout looks something like this:
CHART LEFT SIDE...CHART RIGHT SIDE:
Problem List.............Subjective
PMHx
ROS.........................Objective
Interventions
SHx.........................Diagnosis
FHx.........................Assessment
Allergies..................Plan
Current Meds list......Prescribed Medications
