I have 6 patient instruction boxes for 6 different items. I created document variables called INSTR1, INSTR2, etc.
I want to combine those 6 variables into the INSTRUCTIONS observation term so it prints on the patient instructions when the button is clicked.
I added the {OBSNOW(INSTRUCTIONS",DOCUMENT.INSTR1+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR2+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR3+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR4+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR5+HRET +DOCUMENT.INSTR6)}
When the patient instructions button is clicked, the instructions show up in the note, but it DOES NOT print on the patient instructions.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!
You are missing a quotation mark
{OBSNOW("INSTRUCTIONS",DOCUMENT.INSTR1+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR2+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR3+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR4+HRET + DOCUMENT.INSTR5+HRET +DOCUMENT.INSTR6)}
I fixed the quotation problem.
Patient instructions still will not print.
1) I would add one more + HRET to the command.
2) This command is storing all of those six items to one OBS Term; Can you be more specific about saying patient instructions will not print. What do you mean by patient instructions? Is that a letter, handout, ???
I tried it with and without the +HRET at the end. It didn't work either way.
The patient instructions is a handout created in the office visit.
The patient instructions entered into the document shows up in the text, but when the Patient Instructions is printed, the instructions do not show up on paper print out.
You may have to modify the handout Patient Instruction to ALSO include the OBS Code data for INSTRUCTIONS.
