Drop-Ins with Placeholders
Did you know you can make a drop-in that uses dynamic patient information?
These are called Placeholders.
There's so much you can do with Placeholders.
Let's take a look at what they can do!
When used in your drop-ins, Bells will switch out the placeholder with the selected patient's information for your scribbles and progress notes.
To use Placeholders, simply type a $ and select the placeholder you want.
Then when you use the drop-in in your scribble or note, anything highlighted in yellow will be replaced with the appropriate patient information.
Placeholders:
- First name
- Also known as
- age
- he/she
- He/She
- his/her
- His/Her
- him/her
- Him/Her
- Guardian
- Single Choice
- Multiple Choice
- Patient Noun
The last 3 placeholders in the list are not patient specific - i.e they don't substitute with patient information.
The Patient Noun placeholder uses what your organization calls their patient population, such as patient, client, individual or consumer.
Admin Tip: Not only are placeholders super powerful in drop-ins, they can also be used in your Custom Note Section outputs and progress note templates!
