Encounters in the Patient Profile

Overview

All encounters for a patient are accessible directly from the patient's profile. The Encounters tab provides a comprehensive history of every interaction – past, present, and scheduled – for that patient.

2. Click the Encounters tab
3. All encounters are listed in reverse chronological order

Encounter List Display

Each encounter in the list shows:

• Encounter type (e.g., Initial Intake, Follow-up, Telehealth)
• Date and time – when the encounter occurred or is scheduled
• Assigned care team member – the clinician or coordinator who owns the encounter
• Status – Scheduled, In Progress, Draft, Completed, or Cancelled
• Summary – key notes or assessment highlights
