No one has ever asked me for a summary. I have been asked for a copy of all their meds and I had a patient tell me she wished she could remember all her diagnoses so she could tell consultants. I produced those documents for those patient. It would be much more useful to me (and save a bunch of paper) if one could select whether they want the CCR to have every diagnosis (active or inactive) and every medication (active or inactive) print out. I think the way it is now is very messy and difficult for patients to understand.
