Displaying a Treatment Card in Comment Only View

All comments that you enter in this view are saved without creating a visit.

Staff members who are authorized to edit charting can delete these comments if the comment was added on the current day. To do so, select Edit > Edit Today's Treatment in Edit Charting mode.

To view a patient’s treatment card:

  1. Open the patient's chart and click the Charting button. The Charting menu is displayed.

OR

 

From the main menu, select Functions > Patient Chart > Charting. The OrthoTrac Patient Lookup window is displayed. Select the patient whose treatment card you want to view and click OK. The Charting menu is displayed.

  1. Select Functions > Charting > Comment Only Charting.

The Charting window is displayed, with the patient’s treatment card open by default. The treatment card is displayed in comment-only mode. Viewing a treatment card in this mode is useful for displaying information for a patient who is not on today’s schedule, while avoiding the risk of making accidental changes.

  1. Staff members with the appropriate level of security access can add a note on the Tx Card tab in the Today's Visit box.

  2. View or update information about the patient, including contact details, financial information, doctor information, medical alerts, comments, family information, treatment history, and more. For an overview, see Using the Treatment Card.

  3. To save changes, click Save & Close. To cancel changes, click Cancel.
