Opening Letters
To open an existing patient letter:
From within the Clinical Window, select the Letters tab.
By default, items are displayed in order of date collected.
To open a letter, either:
Double-click the letter, or
Select Edit > Select, or
Right-click the letter and select View from the menu that appears.
The Letter Writer opens, and your letter is displayed, ready for editing.
If a letter is edited within 7 days of being saved initially, you are given the option of either replacing the existing copy or saving as a new letter. This allows complex letters to be worked on over several days. After 7 days the letter is automatically saved as a new letter.
