Dentrix Ideas

Add a "Conditions List" Subview to the Patient Chart

Much like Patient Chart is able to show a panel with the Treatment Plan, it also should be able to quickly view the Patient Chart's Conditions. A panel off to the side from the clinical record, much like the small Treatment Plan window, would allow clinicians to see what diagnoses are still valid/invalid for the patient. The clinician should be able to set an order of these conditions just as he/she can order items in the Treatment Plan.

 

Why is this important? Dentistry is moving toward heavy use of diagnostic codes. Dentrix's Conditions entry type is already in place, however it is too difficult to see a list of only the patient's conditions. (See the YouTube video of Dr. Larry Weed from 1971 to understand the importance of formulating a Problem List, underscoring the important role of Dentrix's "Conditions" entry type.)
