Paxson will always follow-up answers by asking for the next logical task you may need. You can simply type “yes,” and Paxson will provide the indicated information, template, or protocol. However, you can also type “yes AND…” followed by additional context. In this instance, for example, the member could have followed-up with “yes, and provide an additional checklist that we should be using for ongoing annual training for our existing employees. Also, tailor the templates for my practice – my name is Dr. Pat Smith and my practice name is Enabled Back and Neck.”]
