About Clinical Notes

As part of meeting ONC Certification requirements for clinical notes, myAvatar CWS has functionality for generating CCDA (Consolidated Clinical Document Architecture) documents when notes are finalized. These clinical notes are intended to reflect what occurred during a specific visit with the provider and are not intended to reflect on the client's or patient's care summary as a whole. When the user finalizes a note they select whether the clinical note can be released to external providers or to the client or patient. 

Access to clinical notes is through FHIR, CareConnect Inbox, myHealthPointe, Carequality (2023 Roadmap), or HIE (2023 Roadmap). In CareConnect Inbox, users can generate a CCDA document by date range or by selecting a specific clinical note that has been submitted.

Note: System administrators use the Clinical Notes Mapping form to define the type of note to create, the source document for the information, and the standard CCD sections to include in the clinical note, such as Medications and Allergies.
