if you put comments in multiple lines-- ie: I have made a dx box in the labs that I will click and then put my dx for the orders (htn, osteoporosis, cad, screen, .....). I also have an "other" one that I can put oddball labs in (hemachromatosis gene mutation, urine mycoplasma, .....). I do not have an interface with the lab so I print out the lab slip. If I just hit print, only the last comment section I touched will appear on the printout. So what I have figures out is I hit the print button after each comment if there are more than one, but just do not proceed with the actual print, until fully complete. I would like all comments to show up. For example today I had to order a dx mammo and dx us for a f/u screen. I had to put the comment in the mommogram comment box--" right mlo, 90 degree spot compression re: abl screening"-- then hit print, but not proceed to actual printing, then click the us box and put mu comment in that box "r dx us re: abd screen"--- then I could actually print for both comments to show up on the printout.
Does that make more sense? It is just redundant and I would like to put what ever comments in what ever lines I choose and all print out.
It also happens in the referral tab-- comments don't carry over, so I dont' use that box and use the farthest right and free text it all
