Where to find it
Both form editors
Change it, print it, then keep going
After publishing, print the sheet once and look at it on paper. The screen and the printer show the same thing by design, but paper is where you notice that a clause reads badly or a table came out tight. Better one change, printed and checked, than ten at once.
If you rewrite a lot of the printed text
The system recognises its own sheets when they come back scanned, by the shape of what is printed. If you rewrite a large part of it, it warns you: the paper is perfectly valid and files the same, but the first time you scan it somebody will have to place it by hand. After that, the system recognises it on its own.
What the system will not let you do — and why that is good
- Remove or rewrite a paragraph the regulation demands. The paper goes out under your letterhead; it is not going to let you break it.
- Publish a regulatory form with required pieces missing.
- Bring one of our own sheets in as if it were your form. It sends you to the editor, which is what you wanted.
- Turn a form into your own using a sheet that belongs to a patient.
- Adapt a form without being an administrator.
- Change a paper that is already signed. Ever, by anyone.
Everything you do here is on the record
Who adapted a form, when they published it, which version was in use the day a given paper was signed: it is all recorded. That is the point of doing it here instead of in a word processor — the day an inspector asks why that sheet says what it says, the answer exists.
