Copy Completed Note Into Clipboard

Sometimes a clinician may want to copy the completed note into the clipboard. This is useful, for example, when the user wants to paste the finished note into an email or a word document or into another program, such as an enterprise wide medical record database.

There are now two buttons on the Preview screen. One is called, "Copy text only into clipboard" and the other is called, "Copy complete note into clipboard."  The latter  button copies the letterhead, the time and date of the note, and the patient's name and unique number and  the text of the note. 

Unfortunately, there is no way to center the letterhead information.  So, if a nicely formatted note with a centered letterhead is important to you we suggest preparing a letterhead ahead of time and then using the first button to copy and then paste just the text of the note into the prepared and properly formatted letterhead.
