How will paperless entry improve my efficiency? |
First, its just plain faster to click near a bubble than it is to fill the bubble outline with a #2 pencil. Erasures are even faster on the form image compared to paper forms since all you do is click to cleared the bubble. On the paper forms, you must be careful not to erase adjacent bubbles but make sure you erase all of the incorrect bubble. |
The real advantage of paperless entry comes from the ability to copy a previous visit's note or a previous exam's finding. After copying, your form image will contain the marked bubbles for the previous session's treatments or exam findings. You don't have to look elsewhere for the information associated with the last visit or exam. Now, you only need to click the changes. No more confusing "Same As" bubbles. You can even convert an initial exam to a re-evaluation. |
Array entries are faster and less complicated because the OnScreen displays guide boxes around the row and column you are marking. As a warning, the guide boxes change color when you move the mouse pointer outside the current row/column. |
You no longer have to mark the subjective section of the patient's first Daily Note form since the OnScreen program will optionally fill that section from the new patient's Health Questionnaire. |
No need to mark date, Doctor Id, patient Id, and case number bubbles since the OnScreen automatically marks them when you create a new form image. You can change the attending or examining doctor from a pull down list on the image without erasing any bubbles. You can also change the date without erasing bubbles. The case number is displayed on the front side of the first sheet of all form images. The Patient's name, Id number, and form date appear in title bar on every page of form. |
The entry of the larger arrays for the subjective section have been improved and simplified with the addition of region buttons on the form image. After clicking one of the region buttons, the OnScreen program will display a body diagram identifying all complaint locations. After selecting a location, a clear and well organized window will appear for marking the complaint's symptoms, intensity, characteristics, frequency, and status. No more trying to find the location's finding bubble (row/column) in an array that stretches across the entire page. A concise summary of the subjective section by location will appear next to the body diagram. After selecting all locations that comprise the patient's complaint, close the body diagram. The subjective array on the form image will be marked for each location you have selected on the body diagram. |
When you click on an "Other" bubble in the OnScreen, your Predefine text associated with that bubble will be displayed in a pull down list. When you move the mouse over an "Other" bubble, the text previously entered will be displayed. |
There is no need to go to the scanner to scan forms since you can run the OnScreen simultaneously on all workstations in your office. |
You can use a PC tablet or a touch screen display with the OnScreen. Just touch the bubble with the stylus and the bubble will be marked or erased. |
