Get Data copies template entries from a previous encounter with the patient into the current encounter template. Data entry becomes more efficient because you can update entries as needed instead of entering data in every field. You can use Get Data to enter information for exams and in other templates where the button is available.
- Select the Get Data button.
The Encounter picklist opens.
- Select the encounter you want to copy data from, and then select OK.
The fields fill in according to the selections saved from the previous encounter.
- Update any fields where the patient information has changed.
- Select Save & Close.
