Managing Social History Questions
You can hide sections of the social history that are not applicable to your scope of practice. Customizations made to the patient Clipboard apply to all clinical staff and patients within your practice.
For any social history sections you choose to display to clinical staff and patients, you can choose whether new and/or established patients are presented with these questions in the kiosk.
- Log into the Eyefinity EHR web application as an administrator and click the Clipboard/Kiosk/Portal Settings tab.
- Click the Social History tab on the left side of the page.
- For each social history category, select the Clipboard and Portal check box to display the section to clinical staff and patients. Deselect the check box to hide the section from everyone.
- For each social history section you've enabled, select the New and Existing check boxes to display the section to new and established patients within the kiosk.
You can show or hide social history by section. You cannot show or hide individual social history questions.
When you deselect the Clipboard and Portal check box, the social history section is hidden from the patient Clipboard, the patient portal, and the kiosk. Unlike other areas of the Clipboard, clinical staff cannot search for and add hidden social history sections..
Social history sections that display a lock icon rather than a check box are required for legal or regulatory reasons and cannot be hidden.
