We need a patient Summary Tab. Yes it is convenient having alot of key information about a patient available when you are doing a consult note.
This will not function as a Patient Summary Tab. As far as I am aware, every EMR I have ever seen has a Summary Section. We need to show off how much information about a patient we can get to the hands of the person wanting it and how fast and peppy the Synapse GUI is. The Summary Tab will be a great way to show off.
Admittedly we could take many of the ideas from the Consult Editor directly to the Patient Summary Tab, such as ("Text Tab", Graphs, Last 3 visit notes - would be the ones I would bring to the Summary Tab.)
Others needed:
Dates of Last 10 Visit Notes - with Tags.
Numeric Data -
HMGs due.
Active Ticklers.
Medications
Surgeries and Procedures.
Allergies
Diagnoses.
Social History: occupation + Social History Summary.
Doctors
Pharmacy
- maybe a picture.
Will complete this later.
