Which term describes linking patient data from the chart into notes by using a placeholder like '.name'?

The concept here is dynamically pulling data from the patient’s chart into the note using a placeholder. This is what SmartLink does: it links to the chart data and inserts the live value wherever you place the placeholder (for example, .name will insert the patient’s current name from the chart). It keeps the note in sync with the chart without manual typing, reducing errors and saving time. SmartPhrase is a text template you type out that expands into predefined text, and it may include links, but the placeholder that directly pulls live chart data is the SmartLink. SmartList is a list of options or items used within the interface, not a data link to the chart. Surescripts is an e-prescribing network, unrelated to pulling chart data into notes.
