Printing Chart Notes with Redactions

When printing chart notes for a client with a chart redaction, the chart entry date will still appear when printed, displaying only that it was redacted and at what date/time.

This is a requirement set by our legal and policy team in accordance with chart auditing recommendations by HIPAA and will look like this:


Is that your logo on my chart notes?

This is only an example of our practice logo feature, and by default will not print on your chart notes! Without one we print just the text. You can learn more about how to configure that here: Practice Logo and Banners
