Add Document Categories

Document Categories allow for the easy identification of and access to the documents the practice needs for its patients’ records. Documents can be organized into categories for easy identification as they are added into the chart. Documents become a permanent part of the patient’s chart and can be accessed at any time from the chart.

The document categories ultimately make it easy to locate documents as they are added to the patient’s record using the documents module. 

Some document categories are already in place in QSIDental Web:

• Consent – Anesthesia
