Due to dense scheduling and the patient flow in our office we often begin a patient's exam, posting to their chart and then need to have them wait a short time before the doctor finishes the encounter. In the mean time we need to open an encounter for the next patient.But doing that requires forwarding the current chart. Then in a few minutes when we need to continue with that first patient, we cannot write to the same encounter. We get a message saying that the chart is in someones mailbox and that it will open a new encounter without the previous postings. Is there a way to continue an interrupted encounter?
