First - LBV’s are very slick!

Have made a few simple forms, but cannot get checkboxes to appear.

If I have a field called “Orientation”&nbsp; and use the Data Type “Checkbox w/text”&nbsp; the label appears in the form, but without a checkbox.&nbsp; If I change the data type to “list box” or “list box w/add” or “testbox” the appropriate control displays just fine.

Suggestions?

And, is there a library of customized forms - for example orthopaedic or neurologic exams -&nbsp; available for download.&nbsp; If not, can such a collection / import work?

Thanks.

Hi,

Did you choose list for “checkbox w/text” option? Click on the textbox under “List” field, active lists will be displayed in a pop up and you can choose the preferred. If you don’t find the one you need, create a new list in Administration -\> List -\> New list and save the list. It will get displayed in the active lists.

Hope this helps.

Thanks-

Is the&nbsp; “History” form? accessible only from patient -\> summary -\> To History.

Can forms be copied and renamed?&nbsp; For example - if I wanted to use the “Review of Systems” form as the basis for another specialized review, I’d like to keep a copy of the original, and then modify it for the new purpose.

Sorry to repeat the question from my previous post, but is there a repository of forms available for download and import?

Thanks, again.

Hi,

Yes you are right about history form. It is accessible only from patient-\>summary-\>History.

You can copy and rename the form folder.  
1. Go to Openemr/interface/forms/  
2. Copy any folder and rename it  
3. Change the formHeader name in file new.php and form name in info.txt files  
4. Go to Administration -\> other -\> Forms  
5. The renamed form will get displayed under unregistered forms.  
6. Register it, install the DB and finally enable the form.  
7. While saving encounters, you can see the form listed in the right side.

If you want to customize the forms, do the changes in the corresponding files of that form folder.  
Number of inbuilt forms are available in the location openemr/contrib/forms. Please have a look at those forms.

Can the customized forms be used as a tool for building encounter narratives quickly?

I have a prospective client that has used an EMR that enables them to have a templates for example for a normal back exam and an abnormal back exam.&nbsp; When writing their report, they can select narrative components that are then combined to form their encounter note,

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks.

Thanks

Yes, CAMOS looks promising.&nbsp; I’d like to be able to prepopulate CAMOS with all of the boilerplate a physician will need.&nbsp; For example, for an orthopaedic practice, can I create a template that has as placeholders all of the examination (Lachman’s, McMurray;s, etc) and then have the physician select “knee exam” and have an entire report skeleton (no pun intended) displayed for completion?

Any tutotrial?

Thanks - dynamite help!

Well CAMOS has a help link and you could also use this [http://www.openmedsoftware.org/wiki/CAMOS\_module.](http://www.openmedsoftware.org/wiki/CAMOS_module.)

Enjoy
