This functionality allows users to share comprehensive health records securely, ensuring patients and other health professionals have the necessary information promptly. Here’s how you can perform this task:

Steps to Email a Patient Summary with Attachments

Access the Care Record: Begin by navigating to the EMIS Web menu, point to Care Record, and select the module you require. If you've not already selected a patient, you will be prompted to choose one.

Select Summary Type: On the ribbon within the Care Record interface, click on 'Print' and choose between 'Brief Summary with Attachments' or 'Full Summary with Attachments' depending on the detail required.

Incorporate Attachments: On the 'Attachments to Include' screen, select the attachment(s) you wish to include with the summary and click 'OK'. It’s crucial to ensure these attachments are relevant to provide a complete overview of the patient’s condition.

Email the Summary: Once you've prepared the summary and included the necessary attachments, navigate to the Patient Summary screen and click 'Email'. Compose and send the email through your default email client.

"The ability to email patient summaries directly from EMIS Web not only ensures rapid sharing of vital information with other healthcare providers but also supports better patient management by ensuring all parties have access to current records."
