History

A record of a Patient's health, past illnesses, medical conditions, and treatments they have received or undergone. The History typically includes information about the Patient's personal medical background, family medical history, and any current symptoms or complaints. The History can be collected and maintained by the Practice. Having a Patient's History is important for Practitioners and other healthcare providers in diagnosing and treating medical conditions, and can be beneficial to help identify potential risk factors for certain diseases or conditions.
