Review Timestamp Display for Medications and Allergies in SOAP Notes

Enable Review Timestamp Setting

View Review Timestamp in SOAP Components

Update Review Timestamp Through Review Activity

What’s New

•  A new Review Timestamp setting is available under:
  Settings > Practice > My Practice Settings > EHR > Include in SOAP Text.
• The setting is disabled by default and applies to the entire practice.
• An information icon is displayed next to the setting, providing guidance on its functionality.
• When enabled, Medication and Allergy SOAP components display:
  “Last Reviewed by [Provider Name] [Date]” at the bottom of the component.
• The timestamp reflects the most recent review on record, even if it occurred before the current encounter.
• If a review is performed during the encounter, the timestamp updates automatically.
• If no review history exists, no timestamp is displayed.
• Practice localization settings are applied to displayed date and time values.
• Disabling the setting removes review timestamps from SOAP notes.

How It Works 

• Navigate to Settings > Practice > My Practice Settings > EHR.
• Locate the Review Timestamp option under Include in SOAP Text.
• Enable the setting to activate review timestamp functionality for the practice.
• Add Medications or Allergies components to a SOAP note.
• If prior review activity exists, the system displays the most recent reviewer and review date at the bottom of the component.
• If a review is performed, the timestamp automatically updates to reflect the latest review action.
• If no review history exists, no timestamp is displayed.
• Disabling the setting removes timestamp information from SOAP notes.
