In addition to the method described above, a user can also insert handouts by Clicking on the "Patient Education" item within the MU Patient Dashboard.

Once handouts have been entered into the Plan field, the Red X in the MU Patient Dashboard will change to a Green Plus to indicate that the active SOAPnote contains Patient Education.  See: MU Patient Dashboard for more information.

Handouts Added to Plan

Handouts Added to Plan

SOAPware checks to see if there are any handouts linked to keywords appearing in the current SOAPnote. If there are handouts available, the handouts will automatically be inserted into the Plan field.

Tips

Notice this function will only choose and insert handouts names if there are handouts in SOAPware that match an appropriate keyword from the current SOAPnote. If a user attempts to use this function and nothing happens, there are no handouts in SOAPware that match the user's current SOAPnote.
