Snapshot

The Snapshot tab in Instinct EMR lets you quickly orient yourself on a patient before any interaction—appointment, callback, or emergency visit. Presets are predefined widget arrangements that reorder the Snapshot tab to surface the information most relevant to your workflow.


Understanding the Snapshot tab

The tab previously labeled Profile in a patient’s Chart section has been renamed to Snapshot. The content and functionality are the same—the new name better reflects its purpose as a quick, comprehensive view of a patient.

Note: If you previously used the Profile tab, its content has not changed. The Snapshot tab is the same tab in the same location.


How to select a preset

  1. Open a patient's chart and click the Snapshot tab.

  2. Click the preset drop-down in the top-left area of the tab. The available options are Wellness, Clinical, and Follow-Up.

  3. Select the preset that best matches your workflow.

  4. The tab immediately rearranges to display widgets in the selected preset's order.

Your selection is automatically saved and will apply to every patient's Snapshot tab—not just the one you're currently viewing. You can change it at any time by returning to the View drop-down.


What each preset shows

Each preset displays the same widgets in a different order. No information is removed—only the priority changes.

Wellness (default until a preset is selected)

This is the default preset and matches the current layout in Instinct EMR today. It prioritizes preventive care and wellness monitoring — ideal for general practice visits.

Widget order: Medications → Reminders → Weight History → Vaccinations → Health Services → Main Problem/Dx → Recent Certificates → Account Patients → Account

Clinical

Leads with clinical and diagnostic information. Best suited for specialists and some emergency cases.

Widget order: Main Problem/Dx → Medications → Weight History → Health Services → Vaccinations → Account → Account Patients → Recent Certificates → Reminders

Follow-Up

Prioritizes account and client contact details. Most useful when calling clients about hospitalized patients or communicating test results.

Widget order: Account → Account Patients → Main Problem/Dx → Medications → Weight History → Vaccinations → Health Services → Recent Certificates → Reminders
