    The new BETA Family File is pretty & the new upcoming appointments is nice to have easily accessible, but that is all that is nice about it. Just as in the new "Add Patient" screen, it now takes up too much room on our screens. You cannot see all the information at once. The old Family File, we were able to see all the necessary information in a very small space. The new version, we now have to scroll up and down to see all the info. Other concerns: Birthdates are reversed (yr, then mo, then day). Unless you are a military member, this is confusing to the average person. There are several boxes that take up way too much room (referrals/emergency contact, employer). There is not enough information that we will ever fill in these sections to warrant a box that big. Please stop trying to make things pretty and keep them functional. If you would like to add the "upcoming appointments" to the old version, that would be appreciated more than this new version.
