I am wondering if anyone else has this issue and if you found a solution. I have a provider who has a fairly standard template that he follows for certain operative procedures. I am also inserting text components to capture the provider name, patient name and gender. However, it seems that the text component will often push an extra line in the document when I view it in the chart.
Does anyone have a clever was to stop the text component from adding an additional blank line after it? Below is what it looks like in the chart document with the extra blank lines after the patient name, surgeon name and surgery date.
Any ideas appreciated.
DISE OP Note Template
PATIENT NAME: Andrea Dummy
SURGEON NAME: Doctor Dummy, MD
ATTENDING PHYSICIAN:
SURGERY DATE: February 16, 2018
ADMISSION DATE:
DISCHARGE DATE:

There are a couple reasons why this could happen
1. if, in the text section, there is a line break between the end of one code and the beginning of another
IE:
}
{
or
}
{
should be
}{
2. if you have "include trailing return" checked in the translation and have extra spaces elsewhere
3. if a translation isn't completely blank and has its own line break but it still looks blank
4. the code ahead has a line break, that code has a line break, the code after also has a line break, there are just too many line breaks in each code, spacing everything out.
5. there are a few others but these are pretty common and all I can come up with off the top of my head.
Post the code and we can look at it to see whats really going on.
