A feature that OSCAR does lack is a function to help navigate through a template to quickly complete a note. After working with the Reddit Community, they were able to create an AutoHotKey script that would search for items wrapped in «» by pressing CAPS LOCK (I switched this from the ALT+RIGHT mentioned in the Template Tool as I found it much easier to continue typing) , remove the wrap by pressing ALT+DOWN, delete the wrapped item by pressing ALT+LEFT, or type in your response. One caveat is that it works only in a Windows environment using Chrome Browser on the new UI encounter note. These restrictions were placed in order to limit when the functionality can be used. However, this can easily by modified by editing the template in your favorite word processor.

Below is a collection of template that I have created. These are to be used by all in the hopes that they can continue to be edited by the medical community. AutoHotKey can be found here. As WordPress does not accept AHK files, I have uploaded it as a “.docx” file. Simply change the extension to “.ahk” and double click to load the script.
