Editing the "Additional Information" Screen
The Additional Information screen (item #17 on the completed consent screen) may be customized by the administrator and may be edited by the end user. Many VA sites are using this field to add information about pictures, videos, and vendor participation in surgery. Text added here will appear on all consents, but may be edited by the end user under the Edit Options section once you have prepared the consent.
Note: It is strongly recommended to modify the existing text in this field. The default text is not approved text by the VA (it was originally sent as an example).
To edit the “Additional Information” field, follow these steps:
- From the Toolbar, select Maintenance -> Fields
- When the Field Management screen opens, type Additional in the “Filter by” box. Next, click the “Select All” button and click Start Search.
- Your Search Results will bring back the “Additional Information” field.
- Click the field to highlight it and click Edit/Details button.
