Indicate that a Patient Has No Active Problems

If the selected patient has no known problems in the chart, the No Active Problems check box displays in the Problems module. When a new problem is added, the check box is automatically disabled by resetting the indicator. What does resetting mean-that it disappears or the box clears? When a currently active problem is resolved and there are no other active problems listed for the patient, the indicator is reset and the check box is enabled.

  2. Select an encounter from the Encounter History tab or create a encounter.
