Hello - Just upgraded to 8.2.2 Build 114
When I am in Most Recent Encounter tab during a patient visit and I prescribe a medication during that office visit and then forward the chart to myself to finish my documentation later, that medication I prescribed shows up in the "Current Medications" section. It also shows up in the "Medications" section of my note under Allergies once that encounter is finally signed off.
This is different from version 7 where "Current Medications" would not update when I would prescribe a medication and forward the chart encounter to myself to finish documentation later.
Has anyone else noticed this? Seems to me that "Current Medications" in the Most Recent Encounter tab should not update in this scenario and make it look like a patient is taking Amoxicillin (for example) or a higher dose of their SSRI (another example) prior to me seeing them at the office visit when I am actually prescribing that medication or changing that medication dose during that visit.
I think this is confusing to someone reading my note later (seeing Amoxicillin in the "Medications" section of my note under Allergies as well as prescribed in the Plan section of my note for example ). Why the change A.C.?
