Customize Your Encounter Screen for Your Practice
Kareo now allows you to customize the encounter screen layout for your practice and
the way you prefer to work. You can add, remove, and change the order of fields and
sections of your encounter data entry screen. This helps you streamline the data
entry process by entering only the required fields for your practice while skipping
over the situational fields that do not apply to your practice workflow. Other
improvements in Encounters include:
- Approve or change the status of multiple encounters at once
- Add or change a supervising physician on an approved encounter
- Change in status terminology from "Submitted" to "Review"
