I put a {DATESTAMP()} in my office visit so the Physicians don't have to always put the date in
Well now this creates an error for my Physicians who may not finish their notes till the following day ... It's putting the date of whenever they open the note again
It's reflecting the next days date versus the date it was acutally created
ANY WORKAROUNDS?????
don't populate the date field is it's already populated.
It's a "data display" so it autopopulates with the date the note is opened
So if they dont finish the note today and go to work on it tomorrow it will mark 6/19/2012 versus 6/18/2012 when the patient was actually seen
Its a rare occurrence that this should happen as they should all be finishing notes by the end of the day but we are NEW to the EMR side
populate a hidden edit field and if that's populated don't populate it again. populate the data display from the hidden edit field.
You could use DOCUMENT.CLINICALDATE. It will list the date that the document was started and shouldnt change if it is on hold to another date.
