About Patient Encounter: Problem List
Path: Clinical, Practice Management, or Billing tab > Patient Chart button > Encounter > New or Open Note button > Problem List
The Problem List section of the Encounter Note displays and documents all patient Diagnoses and Problems for the patient’s past medical history, allows for Tracking specific Diagnoses or Problems for reporting purposes, shows scanned items, and adds/edits chart note worksheets. This section of the Encounter Note is chart-driven, meaning that the information populated here is pulled from and pushed back to the same section in the Patient Chart.
