Duplicate entries in patient encounter history **solved**

Hi, I try again since there was no answer in 3 weeks, I guess you were all too busy with the new 5.0.1 rel. So Hello there, Probably I missed something or done something wrong, but is there a way to get around the duplicate entries for every patient document in the encounter history. When I link uploaded x-rays to an encounter, it appears there ok, but also leaves the document link in the overview, so any document is mentioned twice in the list. It really clutters up the patient’s encounters…

Easiest way to carry-forward clinical notes

Can anyone tell me the easiest way to carry-forward a previously made clinical note when creating a new patient encounter? IOW’s, what is easiest way to copy the most recent prior note into a current note? It seems time consuming to have to re-create each section of a note with the typical contents specific to each patient each time when all that information was already created at the time of the previous visit. Alternatively, does anyone have any recommendations for attachable software to do…

Of course, if the question is asked with slightly different terms one will get more, or fewer, results and also probably different ones for a more comprehensive response.
Good luck with your research!
