There are several items located at the top of the CPRS window that are available from any tab. These items are: the CCOW icon, the Patient Inquiry button, the Encounter Provider and Location button, the Primary Care button, the Patient Insurance/My HealtheVet button (which is hidden if the patient has no insurance nor My HealtheVet information), the Flag button, the VistaWeb button, the Remote Data button, the Reminders button, and the Postings (CWAD) button.
Note: When a user resizes the CPRS window enough, the buttons can be hidden although they are still there. To ensure that users can still get to the information that these buttons provide, an Information menu item was added to the View menu. This item enables users to access the information from these buttons, even if the buttons are not visible because of screen size.
A detailed explanation of each of these buttons is included in this help file.
