Database merge fields

Database merge fields are simply ways to pull in certain database fields directly into the text template. This is useful when you have a portion of a template that changes with every patient or visit and cannot be account for with a static reference or reasonable multiple choice options. Fields such as name, age, sex, and encounter date are examples of available database merge fields.

Example:

Our patient's name is GALEN TEST and he was born in 1982.

If we setup the text template including the following merge fields: ~FName LName~ is a ~Age~ ~Sex~ who presents today for routine follow up.

When the template is called or appears in the Note the result will be: GALEN TEST is a 27 yo male who presents today for routine follow up.
