Creating cover page templates
Updated over a week ago

Any fax within the Collaborative Health Record (CHR) is consolidated as a PDF before it is sent out. You can add a cover page when you send it out (see Adding a cover page to a fax).

When building your template, you must upload a base PDF document that serves as the background for your cover page.

๐Ÿ“Œ Note: You must have the Templates: Cover Page permission to create or modify cover page templates. See User permissions.

Cover page templates can contain text boxes, check boxes, and signatures that you can configure to automatically populate with patient data or that you manually enter when sending a fax.

These fields can also be configured in such a way that when you add information to a text box or checkbox, it can move back into the patient chart.

You can also create autofill cover page templates. By using these templates, you can complete cover pages with data points pre-populating directly into the cover page before you have even opened it. See Creating autofill cover page templates for more details.

๐Ÿ’ก Tip: You can view your archived, active or all cover pages you have created in the past by clicking Active > select All, Active or Archived next to Cover Page Templates.
