There is one problem in web version that is not a problem in exe (desktop) version of eCW.
When you are seeing a patient, and you are in their progress note, you may need to see when the patient first started coming to this clinic. Or you may need to refer to an older progress note. But in web version you cannot see past a certain point. Unless you click on the bottom progress note (red arrow on screenshot) and then click on the button (blue arrow) and keep repeating these clicks until you get to the past note you want.
This is terrible.
In exe, I can simply look at the dropdown menu and see the first date I started seeing the patient and go to any of the old progress notes.
This is important in day to day patient treatment and filling out disability forms and such. Also for insurance prior authorizations to see why someone failed a particular medication.
It can lead to medical errors as you don’t know an old progress note exists (with important info) unless you perform multiple clicks to get to the old note or you click out to the hub and go to encounters.
I am going to request that this gets fixed.
Why did they take that away?? I don’t know. But it is dangerous.
And embarrassing when you think the patient has been coming to the clinic since 2020 but they have actually been coming since 2018.
I am hoping that people here also are annoyed and crippled by this terrible problem in web version of ecW and will join me in asking for an enhancement. Till then I will continue to use exe version.
Thank You
