How do clerkships work in LCMS+?
LCMS+ treats clerkships as any other course, with one exception: A course marked as a clerkship will be tied to our Patient Encounter Tracking system (PET). The PET system allows students to record the patient types and procedures that they encounter on their clinical rotations and offers reporting based on feedback from both students and their SPs. Click here to try out the PET system in LCMS+ and let us know what you think!

Do you use LCMS+ on Windows� 7 or 8? Here's an easy way to report any bugs
Do you know about Windows� Problem Step Recorder? Windows PSR is a built-in tool that helps you document the path to a specific bug or trouble issue on your computer. We've added a video tutorial on our YouTube channel to show you how. If you're running Windows 7 or 8, you can use Windows PSR to record the steps you took to encounter the bug. Then you can save the recording and attach it to a trouble ticket in our Client Services portal. This really helps us understand the nature of the problem you encountered and how we can best help you solve it. (Sorry, Apple users - nothing like this built in to the Mac. There are some third-party tools that do the same thing, although we can't recommend any particular one.)

Winning new designs for EHR apps
The winning design, called "Nightingale", addresses problems like medication plans that are tough to understand, unintuitive formatting, impersonal statistics, and the general feel of a decades-old print-out. It will be the basis of the open-sourced final version of the downloadable medical record that other healthcare providers could adopt.
A combination of the best submissions will be open-sourced and implemented as the record format for the Veterans Affairs Administration and its 6 million patients.
