Certainly. That's what Horst's gnotary is about. http://www.gnumed.net/gnotary/

Gerard The logs would show that all the relevant patient data had been downloaded to the client. I think it is asking too much of the process to also verify that the doctor saw it on the screen, was in a fit state to process the data and come to a logical conclusion. In my experience only the clinical note written on the day can concisely log what data was processed to come to the clinical management plan. Having pointers to the relevant data is helpful (e.g. see last entry 5 July 2002; Dr Jones' letter, 26 February 2000, histopathology skin 14 September 2002). I once thought a drag and drop hyperlink might be the best way to do this but text entry is as efficient; just not as cool. Is this what you are trying to achieve?
