Brian,
In general, we put those things in as a progress note. We also put them in the schedule. This lets us keep better track of them from a billing standpoint, not to mention at the end of your progress note, you have a super bill to bill for the procedure you are doing. This applies to any of the nurses visits for blood draws, urinalysis, hemoglobin, etc. for common procedures, they have templates. If the test is something I am tracking longitudinally, we put it under tracked items as well. The biggest downside is that it is one more thing in my inbox to sign off. However, it ensures that I have seen the results. Hope this helps.
