Seems pretty clear from the raw docs:

<maml:para>Send parameters can also be saved to a PSWUSettings.xml
file in ModuleBase path: \r\nExport-Clixml

I find the Get-WUHistory from the PSWindowsUpdate module provides far more
useful information regarding which updates are installed. It has an option
-SendReport but the help for the cmdlet does not provide any information on how
to use the option.
Thanks,

help get-hotfix -full
For your purposes this might work, if you have a small number of computers:
( get-hotfix -computername work1, work2, work3 | sort installedon )[-1]
