If you mean doing a summary, many of us create an encounter with a chief complaint named "Chart Summary", or something, and put in the PMH, FH, SH, problem list, med list, vaccine history, etc. before seeing the patient for the first time in AC. If you are really ambitious, a summary of the old chart could be put in the HPI as well, but that is way more than most of us can stand. Otherwise, can you amplify on what you mean by "Inputting patient charts.... by keyboard"?
