Hi Marko and Rodolfo, We have a comment field available for the programinstance object. This is for general comments about a person in a program, a bit like a whiteboard that you can always see on top of the data entry form in Person Dashboard. This field is also limited to 255 characters, but we can extend it. We have a patientcomment object that is referenced in programinstance.
Would this meet your needs or you need to have a comment per program stage instance (encounter/visit)? I guess we could link to a patientcomment from programstageinstance as well, and this way make comments available per stage instance?
