Which is a text template for charting that can include text, SmartPhrases, Smart Lists and SmartLinks and is used in notes?

• A. SmartPhrase
• B. SmartText
• C. SmartTools
• D. Stork

Answer: (B)

SmartText is the text template used in notes that can embed plain text, SmartPhrases, Smart Lists and SmartLinks. This makes it a flexible tool for charting, since you can combine standard wording with reusable phrases, lists of items, and links to live data all in one note. For example, you can have a single SmartText note that includes a basic assessment, inserts a SmartPhrase for patient-specific language, lists current problems with a SmartList, and includes a SmartLink to the most recent labs. A SmartPhrase alone is just a standalone block of expandable text and doesn’t inherently incorporate lists or links the way SmartText does. SmartTools or Stork aren’t used for this charting template.
