Create a Word Document
Users can create a custom word document template with the desired quick links. The custom document has to be uploaded in the Office Wizard and then added to a patient's profile. Once the same has been downloaded from the patient's profile, all the relevant quick links will fetch the corresponding patient information and the practice user can continue editing the word template offline without having to enter all those data manually.
Here is a list of the available quick link types, along with their names and corresponding descriptions.
