I wanted to know if it is possible to create a quick text, to enter data into the flowsheet?
Example: Flowsheet for Mammogram with a value entry of "Done"
Just looking for workflow efficiency!
Thank you!!

Is there a way to use this same method but where the date of the obs term would be the same as the date of the document? For example, if we want to append a document because a test result came in, it would enter the obs term in the flowsheet with the date of the append, not the date of the office visit when the test was ordered/performed. The only way I know to get around it is to append the visit, do a full update, change the date of the update... and then enter the quicktext with the obs term info. (quite a few clicks) Thanks for your insight!

Good question. I wouldn't know how to do that but hopefully someone else will!

From Help:

{OBSNOW(’weight’,’155’,’02/01/2001’)}

Adds an observation of 155 for weight to the flowsheet with an observation date of February 11, 2001.

So you should be able to use {OBSNOW(’Mammogram’,’Done’,’04/30/2019’)}

Unfortunately you can't use a quick text with MEL in a standard append. You would have to create a full update append to utilize the quick text in the way you are wanting here.

That only worked if you always wanted the same date for the obs term. Once you enter the quick text in the document, there's no way to change the date. (unless I'm missing something, which is completely possible). I think you would have to go back to quick text settings and change the date there every time you had a different date, which would happen all day long and not be very efficient.
