Document the Well Child Encounter Dynamically

You can dynamically document the reason for visit of a well child using the Well child HPI in the Reason for Visit panel.

If the intake staff selects the Well child HPI reason during the intake process, the Well child HPI reason automatically appears on the Reason for Visit panel. If the intake staff does not select the Well child HPI reason, you can select the Well child HPI reason from the left pane.
