Adding allergies to Health History

While the Health History window includes many common medical conditions and allergies, the list is not exhaustive. You can add to the list, edit the entries, or inactivate entries.

To add an allergy to Health History

1.   In any module except the Office Journal and eDex , click File, point to Switch To, and then click Health History.

The Health History window appears.

2.   In the toolbar, click the Setup button.

The Health History Setup dialog box appears.

3.   Click the Allergies tab, and then click Add.

The Add New Allergy dialog box appears.

4.   Type a description of the allergy you want to add, and then click OK.

The allergy is added to the Allergies list in the Health History Setup dialog box, and any Questionnaire forms that include health history are updated.

Note: By default, Show as an Allergy in the Patient Questionnaire, Show as Critical, and Display as Pop-up Alert are selected. If desired, clear the check boxes to disable these options.
