i think brian's idea of using sequential branching templates is great, however, as he so correctly states, if one is limited to templates.
there is another method, which if it were to work, would allow even more flexibility in data entry, and that's the creation of a fully operational word document, importable as a template into AC.
in other words, if one were to create a template in word, with drop-down boxes, selectable by keystroke, and therefore also with voice command and control, one would have both navigation through the template with a variety of selections, AND navigation through AC.
one would still use sequential branching, however it would be to additional templates, with further drop-down boxes.
the REALLY neat feature would be to have selectable options in the drop-down boxes tied to chronic & preventive care disease registry indicators, in addition to the labs, programmable to any parameters one wanted, eg AHRQ, HEDIS, whatever.
and sequel will make all of this possible.
howzat sound?
