Physician Practice Documentation

The Physician Practice Document (PPD) module is used to electronically document patient visits made within the clinic environment. Tasks associated with charting patient exams and assessments are automated, designed to follow the workflow of a typical visit, and ultimately create a single document summarizing care received.

PPD lets physicians easily review notes made during prior clinic visits. They may also access their patients’ medical records from visits to other environments, such as inpatient, outpatient, long-term care, and the emergency department. All diagnostic results are presented in a format that’s sortable, filterable, and easy to use. Entries—such as vital signs, height and weight, allergies, and code status—are shared across the continuum of care, preventing duplication and miscommunication.

This application’s broad set of features and functionalities can help clinics reduce costs, increase revenue, improve administrative and clinical staff efficiency, and enhance patient care and safety. Developed with flexibility in mind, clinics can customize virtually any component—templates, select lists, data fields—to meet their needs and individual physician preferences.
