Adding medications to Health History

You can use Health History to record a patient's medications. However, since Health History doesn't include a list of available medications to select from, you must add them. You can add medications on a per patient basis, or you can add them without selecting a patient by opening Health History from the Office Manager.

To add a medication 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.   To add a medication, click the Medications tab, and then click Add.

The Add New Medication dialog box appears.

4.   Type a description of the medication you want to add.

5.   To prevent the medication from appearing as critical and/or an alert from appearing for the medication you added, clear the Show as Critical and/or Display as Pop-up Alert check boxes.

6.   Click OK.

The medication is added to the Medications list in the Health History Setup dialog box.
