Create and Edit Encounter Macros

What is an encounter macro?

Encounter macros can be thought of as "sub-templates" for your RXNT encounter forms. Macros allow your providers and staff to set up pre-filled text and selections in your encounters that are specific to certain patient visits or scenarios. For example, many providers use a single encounter form for patient visits, but fill it out differently depending on the chief complaint of the patient.

Combine encounter macros with Short Keys for even more efficient patient visits!
