I've searched the message board and couldn't find anything for Family History on ARRA, so I would like to make a recommendation. Make "conditions" a separate entry to "family members". Then we could enter a list of family members with numbers for each member. Then have a list of conditions entered separately and have check boxes for each family member that has the condition. As an example ...
Family Member Natural Sister .......... 001 Natural Father ......... 002 Half Brother ............ 003
Conditions Family Member 001 002 003 Diabetes ................................................................ X ..... X ..... X Hypertension ......................................................... X ..... X ..... X Arthritis ................................................................. _ ..... X ..... _
It would be MUCH EASIER to enter data this way then to enter it as it is, now, with conditions being repeated for each family member Natural Sister - Diabetes, Hypertension Natural Father - Diabetes, Hypertension, Arthritis Half Brother - Diabetes, Hypertension

I started a thread under Meaningful Use about the Family Hx. No responses yet. Have you found any good way to maneuver through the lists? Your suggestion seems reasonable, but does that solve the endless search for the exact relationship and condition?

Sorry it took so long to get back with you, but I don't check the board on a regular basis. Unfortunately, I haven't found a faster way to get through the list to date.

I did find out you can type what you need and enter it, not limited to the lists. Diabetes, hypertension....and delete any extraneous info that comes up. That has made it much easier to work with.
