You can set up a Qnaire to automatically push its scores (sub-scores and total scores) to the patient data section of the patient chart once the patient has completed the Qnaire. See Adding Qnaire scores to patient data.

Encounter templates can then be configured to automatically pull in these Qnaire scores. This is similar for letter templates and form templates.

⚠️ Important: A patient data template associated to Qnaire scores must be added to your CHR domain. Contact TELUS CHR support (see Contact us) if you do not see the patient data category associated to Qnaire scores in your domain.
