Recording procedures and surgeries using favourites
If your clinic has been implemented with the new ICD9-based procedure list, when you search for a procedure or surgery to add to a patient’s procedure list, favourites display at the top of the results. You can also choose a favourite procedure directly from your favourites list.
Procedure favourites can be clinic-wide (can be used by all users), or user-specific (can be used by you only). You can add or remove procedures in your user-specific favourites list only.
