When did Calendar Appointment Comments start appearing in patient's encounter notes?

To all: Summary

  • Retitle flow board Reason to Appt Comment.
  • Honor Config appointment comment in encounter reason for visit. Config has a flag for this so I won’t remove this behavior. Use flag.
  • Verified if no reason for visit then use chief complaint

Going through code has so many options for handling the Comment and ROV that it’s gotten to the point we almost have to assign priority to how handle. At the start of all this the ROV was meant to be entered when the clinician filled out the visit form. Over the years devs have tried to accommodate different work flows resulting in confusion.
So I’ve tried to hit a middle ground here. Sorry if I’ve disappointed anyone.

When Config for show comment as ROV

You’ll have to trust me the flag works otherwise and comment is not the ROV.

For a patch this isn’t a good idea to address. Perhaps I can come up with something that doesn’t involve touching the database. I’ll ponder
