Why would you want a search button ? You type part of the name in the search 
field and hit Enter/Return key. If it does not find a patient it will ask you 
to create a new one . Is this what you mean ?





Agreed. 


I have a feeling that you would like to get rid of some extra clicks to put the 
patient on the waiting list. Right now one has to open the patient, switch to 
waiting list and press add (specify a reason for encounter etc.)


If we put in an extra dialog in between finding and opening the patient I guess 
some users who don't use waiting lists will complain about this extra step


--:  can it be workplace specific ie for frontdesk. They are supposed to give 
appointments. Or it can be configurable - those who need keep it.   



.


I am not sure placing more button in the top panel next to the name is a good 
idea. Maybe we can implement Shift+Enter for Searching and placing on waiting 
list (could pop open the box which is triggered on 'Add' button) while plain 
Enter will bring up the patient.


Awaiting more input from clinicians.
