Hi All,
I'm wondering how to best handle this message sitution:
A patient calls the office, I take the call and I speak with her. She is having anxiety and would do well with the little lorazapam.
I want to document the conversation and also document a new script which will become part of her medication history.
How are people most successfully doing this? (this exchange did *not* take place via a message transmitted to me through AC message center, so I can not simply reply back to a message).
Currently I see one of a few possibilities -- none perfect:
1. Enter a brand-new note in most recent encounters
2. Try using the "addendum" function (though it does not appear to have an Rx writer)
3. Somehow make myself a message in the message center which I can then save and use the "refill" function to generate a prescription.
Thoughts? Suggestons? ideas? (perhaps we'll take a "poll"?) - (a tribute to Bert
)
