Customizing Patient History Questions in the Kiosk

You can customize which past medical, surgical, and social history questions are presented to patients within the portal and kiosk. 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.

The conditions and surgeries you chose to display to clinical staff are also displayed to patients within the patient portal. However, you can choose from a selection of colloquial terms, so that patients are not presented with unfamiliar medical terminology.

For any conditions or surgeries 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.
