Patient Medical History is a critical part of managing the health and wellness of all patients. The Medical Record provides all activity of the patient including medical history, treatments, communication, and an overview of the patient and client information. This article will review the improvements made to the Medical Record in Covetrus Pulse. Use the hyperlinks below to quickly navigate this article.
Patient Highlights
The Patient Highlights displays a snapshot of the overall patient’s health and activity allowing the user to quickly review the patient’s medical history immediately. This change organizes the patient and client information at the top of the medical record, providing a quick reference to information on the Patient Profile, Client Profile, Alerts, and Visits.
Before
Note the red highlighted area is the Patient and Client information is vertically displayed along with the Patient Highlights.
After
Now the Patient and Client information along with the most recent Visits are horizontally displayed above the Quick Links.
Note: To edit Patient Information or Client Information, click the three-dot ellipses icon to the right of the Name, and select Edit Profile.
Highlights Tab
Everything under the General Information tab is converted into a visual display of a tile. Each tile is a list or display of the most recent activity within that tile area. Note that some tiles provide a sidebar to enter the data and some tiles navigate the user away from the highlights. We are continuing to transition all tiles to provide the same sidebar experience, so the user won’t have to navigate away from the page.
Also, the patient and client information are reduced to a smaller subset of information but sticks at the top while scrolling the page. The user can click the six-dot icon in the upper left corner of each tile to drag it into the desired order within the Highlight Tab.
Weight Trend View
Click on the plus icon in the upper right corner of the tile, and a sidebar will display on the right side of the page. The user can manually add a new weight.
Master Problem View
Click on the plus icon in the upper right corner of the tile, and a sidebar will display on the right side of the page. The user can manually add a master problem to the list.
Medications View
Click on the plus icon in the upper right corner of the tile, and a sidebar will display on the right side of the page. The user can manually add a medication to the list.
Follow Up View
Click on the plus icon in the upper right corner of the tile, a sidebar will display on the right side of the page. The user can manually add a follow-up to the list.
Patient Documents View
Click on the plus icon in the upper right corner of the tile, and a popup window will display on the page. The user can either drag and drop a file into the window, browse, or upload the file.
To edit the file, click on the file name, and a window will pop up to allow you to delete, edit, or open the file.

Below are the Patient Highlight tiles that will have the add/edit functionality coming soon. For the tiles below, the add/edit function navigates to a separate page to update.
- Client Communication Log Highlights View

Patient Highlights Sidebar
For additional visibility, the Patient Highlights have been converted to a sidebar for all medical record pages now. We added the flexibility to expand/collapse, as well as scroll independently while on any of the medical record pages.
Display Settings
Next to the button to expand the sidebar, there is a gear icon ( ), which provides you with the ability to show/hide specific cards or organize them based on which is more important to be near the top, to avoid any potential scrolling.
Changes are applied automatically. To exit the display settings, either click the Close button or click the x on the top right corner.
