I'm not sure things are that simple, unfortunately.. If you set Default Queries = Y, then answers from the previous documentation will "pull forward" to the next time you document on the same intervention, regardless of whether you have that query set to demo recall or not. The functionality a lot of people want in NUR is to pull some answers from the previous time documented, but not all, and they want this to be intervention specific. Having everything default is bad because you rely on users to delete or change data that should be updated, having nothing default is bad because the users have to keep entering answers which remain true thru the whole visit, or thru the entire time the intervention is active. For example, if you had a "IV" intervention, with 1 intervention per each IV for the patient, you might want the "Location", "Date Started", and "Time Started" field to pull forward, but the "amount infused" not to pull forward. So intervention #1 would have "Left Arm", 05/25/06, and 1000, pulling forward each time the user documents, but the "amount infused" would be blank. Intervention #2 would have "Right Arm", 5/27/06, and 2310 pulling forward each time the user documents, but the "amount infused" would also be blank. Setting "Location" to demo recall = Y would not work properly for this because there would be only 1 value in demo recall for the field, and it would be set to whichever intervention was filed most recently. Also, there are lots of answers that are visit specific that you would want to persist on an intervention during a particular visit, but you would not want to pull forward from prior accounts. I also believe that demo recall will not be updated by documentation done on PRE accounts, as they don't meet the Meditech definition of "most recent" account.

We'd much rather spend hours writing attributes... I shared this with my NUR counterpart, who does most of our attribute stuff... we spent about 15 minutes rolling on the floor, laughing at ourselves because we didn't think of this.
