Editing allergy entries in Health History Setup

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

To edit an allergy entry in Health History Setup

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, select the allergy you want to edit, and then click Edit.

The Edit Allergy dialog box appears.

4.   Type a new description of the allergy, and then click OK.

The edited 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 a Medical Condition 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.
