Completing the Examination Tab
Completing the Examination Tab
What: The consultation tab where you record vitals, run questionnaires, document body systems, and draw on body charts.
Why: Capturing examination findings alongside the symptoms and diagnosis keeps the whole encounter in one structured record instead of separate paper notes.
When: After the Symptoms tab, before moving on to Diagnose & prescribe.
