The Benefits of Building an Outline for VGR iForms

We started building our VGR iForms before we got any real formalized training, but fortunately for us, we hadn't started using VGR until close to when we went for training. During the training, we got some very good advice:

"When building a VGR iForm, it's best practice to build an outline with all of your orderables first."

We didn't get a full explanation of the reason at the time, but I can tell you from just a few months experience and looking at the larger picture, it's the best advice that he could've given us. The quick explanation that he gave to us was that it helped separate the clinical duties / responsibilities from the technical / development duties and that's certainly true, but it's only a piece of the puzzle.

InSight 2012

Just as a quick FYI, I am going to be at this year's annual InSight conference. I've been asked to present at two sessions: those called "If You Build It (Well), They Will Order." I hope to see you there!
