Email

Send email from within a patient's record.

• You can compose an email using Letter Writer itself, and then send that email as either plain text (which excludes formatting and images) or an attachment (in PDF or RTFformat). You may wish to use this method if you're creating a new letter for the patient and simultaneously wish to email it.
• You can send email from the Correspondence, Documents, Letters, or Results tabs of the patient's record. Via these tabs, you can select a document and email it directly from its associated tab.

MedicalDirector Customer Care welcomes queries relating to Letter Writer e-mail, but cannot assist you regarding any third-party or web-based e-mail applications.

If you have MAPI-compliant (Messaging Application Programming Interface) e-mail software installed on your computer, letters can be sent from and imported to, the Letter Writer.

Clinical does not actually send or receive email. Rather, Clinical interacts with your third-party email software which sends and receives via your email server. Before you can send or receive email using Clinical, ensure that your email client software is installed and functioning correctly.
