Problems

Making 'Problems' in SystmOne allows codes to be easily visible when reviewing patients' clinical records.

It is possible to 'code a condition' but not make it a 'Problem'.

There are a number of scenarios when it comes to elevating a clinical code to a 'Problem', and the list below describe the various scenarios.

Having accepted the clinical coding, one can see that there is no associated 'Flag marker' to identify the code in our problem list.

Ensuring that the text cursor is immediately after the clinical code, a shortcut key of "Ctrl + ;" will convert the code into a major problem.
