I think Medication Tracking is another major defficieny in this program.
Ideally, Medication History Button (in Past Encounters page) should document the following:
1."Current Medication list" present at each visit
2. Chronological List of ANY medication ever prescribed by provider
3. List of Discontinued medications (and the comment of why they were dicontinued) - this is suppied the program when we double left click medication list and then check off 'patient is no longer taking this medication' and 'comment'
I've made some of these suggestions to AC months ago, but I'm pessimistic things will ever change.
Finally - I've tried listing medication experiences in "allergies" section (eg. Inderal -> made bradycardic 7/12/2011)) , but because there is no formatting available, becuase the thin red print is so hard to read, and because of overobfuscation with documentation (ie who made the entry and when) I'm having limited success.
I find myself becomming prgressively frustrated with this progam.
