Medical Record Categories are the "sections" of the electronic health record system within VetView.  These categories can hard coded "types" or simple document sections.  Hard coded categories are included with your VetView installation and cannot be removed.  You can make custom categories which you can use to create new sections within your medical record.

This tab also allows you to control the display of the EHR on the Hospital Portal.

For example, if pre-admissions should always come before all other documents, you can set them to be at the very top on this screen.

Many categories will not appear on the patient record until a request has been put in for documents or services of that type.  For example, Imaging will not display unless you have either requested Imaging be done for the patient, or if the Episode Type has the Imaging category always turned on.
