Setting up clinical note review templates

For the Clinical Note Review Dashboard, you can add clinical note review templates with the applicable evaluation criteria as needed. You can edit a template only if it is not associated with a saved review. You can delete a template only if it is not associated with a saved review and if it is not the only template.

Notes:

Each question in an evaluation must be worded in a way that the response could be Yes, No, or N/A.

The default template should be the template that you will use most often and will be the template that is selected by default when you open the Evaluation Report dialog box to start a review.

Accessing the Clinical Note Review Dashboard requires the "Clinical Review Dashboard, Select Docs For Review" security right.

Setting up clinical note review templates requires the "Clinical Review Dashboard, Template Setup" security right.
