Bailee DeBord 1.1 25 **Note**: This action can only be performed with encounters with dates of service prior to the current encounter on the calendar, no matter when the encounter was created. So, for example, if you are working on an encounter with a date of April 2, 2023, you can compare and copy from any encounter with a date of service before that date. If you have an encounter for the same patient on April 5, 2023, that encounter will not be available in the dropdown.
