More Information

Set Up Default & Individual Email Flags - Even though set up email form defaults for new patients in your Patient Properties, you can turn these features on/off directly from the Patient and Responsible tabs of the patient folder. When you email a form, rather than printing it, it is still recorded in the appropriate correspondence history.
