Brief Overview
The Clinical Journey provides a holistic, chronological view of the patient's clinical record in Clinic to Cloud. This contains all clinical items related to the patients, and certain non-clinical related items.
The Clinical Journey can be filtered to display only the information that the provider would like to see, and these settings are user-specific. This means that filtering out certain irrelevant items will not affect any other users in the practice.

1. Select the item you'd like to print, which will highlight the record in yellow.

Hiding a Record in the Clinical Journey
If an item has been added to a patient's record by mistake, you may wish to hide a record from their clinical file, as most clinical items cannot be deleted.
1. Click the Hide icon on a record.
2. A grey hue will be displayed against the item.
3. When filtering in the Clinical Journey, you may wish to use the Display Hidden Entries field to either show or hide these items from view. Filtering is discussed in the next section.
Filtering the Clinical Journey
There may sometimes be records of a particular type that you would like to filter out of your Clinical Journey view, so that is less cluttered. Filtering out certain records will not delete them from the patient, but will just hide them from your view. This will only affect your user for each patient, and can be reversed at any time.
1. Click the Filter icon above the Clinical Journey.
2. De-select any items from the Category List of items you do not wish to see within the Clinical Journey.
3. Click on Apply.
Searching for a Record by Date
If there is a particular item in the Clinical Journey that you are unable to find, you can use the filtering mentioned above, as well as a date field to try to find an item.
1. Click on the Filter icon at the top of the Clinical Journey.
2. Use the filtering options to find the record.
- The first date range refers to the date that the record was added to the file. This will be most helpful for records that were created within the practice, such as any consultation notes, referrals, letters etc.
- The Collected Date Period refers to when a sample or scan was completed on the patient, in relation to Pathology Requests and Imaging Request.
- The Reported Date Period refers to the date in which an Imaging Result or Pathology Result is received from a laboratory company.
