Because the final iteration of the document is the legal representation of the medical record (and includes all signatures and added information), it should be the only revision available to users who need to access the document after it is completed.

For this reason, Document Type Rendition/Revision settings for all Document Types belonging to a medical record Document Type Group must be Non Revisable.

When all deficiencies on a document are complete, deficiencies and notes are burned permanently onto the document. When this happens, even though the medical record Document Types are non-revisable, a new rendition and/or revision is created for the document.

  • An image document will have a new revision added.

  • A text document will have an image file format rendition created as a new revision.

  • Notes/deficiencies/annotations that are on previous revisions of the document and are not setup to be on all revisions will be deleted.

If administrators (users explicitly given the medical record privilege of Administration) need to investigate the document's revision history, they can access previous revisions by right-clicking on an open document and selecting Revisions/Renditions.
