Patient Manager
Quickly track patients as they move through the stages of their visit (arrival time, wait time and progression within the office).
Save time and improve patients’ experience with easy access to the information you need to provide optimum care.

Benefit from streamlined synchronicity – entries made on the CPP are automatically added to an existing or new encounter.
Quickly transfer important information recorded during an encounter into the CPP
Save time with easy information retrieval – the CPP is organized by categories.
Customize CPP configuration by user preference – many category windows can be resized, added to or removed from the CPP screen.
View commonly used categories as floating, resizable windows for your convenience and control.
Categorize each entry by its significance for at-a-glance prioritization.
Encounters/Progress Notes
Record findings using the method you prefer – a mouse, keyboard, voice dictation or Tablet PC handwriting recognition.
Improve accuracy and speed by using predefined templates for standard encounters (e.g. hypertension visit) or create custom templates to suit your needs.
Combine templates in a single encounter (e.g. hypertension and depression) and record additional information whenever necessary.
Save time by pulling in the information from a similar previous encounter (e.g. follow up of a chronic disease such as arthritis).

Save time and effort by prescribing medications and ordering tests directly from the Encounters tab.
