Deficiencies are based on deficiency Note Types, whose names are prefixed with MedRec by default. Deficiency Note Types have built-in configuration settings to ensure they are properly displayed and burned on charts. Because these settings should not be modified, most attributes of deficiency Note Types are not configurable.
