The "Encounter List" is the main dashboard for viewing patient encounters (including Reports, Rx's and scanned/attached documents). You generally arrive at this screen by double-clicking the patient name, although you could also click the Encounters button on the Patient Demographics screen.
There are several tabs across the top of the Encounter Screen to help you navigate to the correct item. You can double-click the <Add New> at the top of any list to add a new item.
