This is useful because having the Plan of Care be its own document allows the users to access and view the plan of care easier. The users don't have to go into the initial exam, progress note, recert note to fax the plan of care to the patients' doctors. There is also no way to attach the plan of care to an assigned note once it has be signed and returned from their doctor. This is inconvenient.
Our hope with SOAP 2.0 was to limit the visual of multiple notes for a single DOS and instead enable therapists and office staff to easily send documentation that is necessary by selecting those options while printing of faxing the documentation. We will have some upcoming improvements to fax planned for December of 2022 and here is some additional information around faxing documents at this time.

Too many steps to fax a Plan of Care. It should fax WITH the IE, especially since you have removed the physician signature line from the IE.
Today, I go to attach a signed POC and today there is no POC OR IE in the assigned note field. There is only NA.
I agree with this. I just spent 30 minutes on chat support for this very thing. I was attaching the POC and for assigned note, I had the option of NA or IE. The support tech on chat said to use IE. Now, if I get a separate signed IE from the doctor, I only have the option of NA. This needs to be evaluated further and changed.
