Surveillance & Preventive Care
(Track items relevant to this patient. For items not on file, write "Unknown/not on file — [planned action]". Remove rows not applicable.)
| Domain | Last date | Result / Status | Action today |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kidney (eGFR, UACR) | [Date(s)] | [eGFR value; UACR value] | [Ordered / Up to date / Records requested] |
| Eyes (dilated exam or retinal screening) | [Date] | [Result; source] | [Referred / Records requested / Up to date] |
| Feet/Neuropathy (comprehensive exam, monofilament) | [Date] | [Findings; risk category] | [Performed today / Referred / Up to date] |
| Cardiovascular (BP trend, lipids, statin, smoking) | [Dates] | [BP summary; lipid values; statin status; smoking status] | [Medication changes / Labs ordered / Up to date] |
| Immunizations | [Date(s)] | [COVID-19; influenza; pneumococcal; hepatitis B] | [Administered / Deferred / Up to date] |
| DSMES/Nutrition | [Date of last referral] | [Status] | [Referred / Up to date / Declined] |

Objective
Vitals: [BP (emphasize); other vitals as relevant; orthostatics if indicated]
Exam: [General appearance; cardiopulmonary findings; foot exam findings if performed today; injection/CGM sites if applicable] (Document pertinent positives and negatives only)
Data Reviewed: [Labs with dates; CGM/device report with reporting window; outside records reviewed] (Note expected data that was unavailable)
Assessment & Plan
(Order problems by clinical priority: safety concerns first, then organ-threatening risks, then optimization. Label patient-reported outside results as such. Do not establish diagnoses requiring persistence from a single abnormal value—note as abnormal screening with repeat planned.)
[Problem 1]: [Diagnosis or condition]
- Status: [Controlled / Uncontrolled / Stable / Progressing] — [key supporting data with dates]
- Goal: [Individualized treatment target]
- Plan: [Medication changes; orders; referrals; education; barrier mitigation; monitoring and safety considerations]
[Problem 2]: [Diagnosis or condition]
- Status: [Status with dated data]
- Goal: [Goal]
- Plan: [Interventions, orders, monitoring]
(Add additional problems as needed: hypertension, dyslipidemia, CKD/albuminuria, retinopathy, neuropathy/foot risk, ASCVD/HF, obesity, tobacco use, vaccination gaps)
Follow-up
[Follow-up interval and modality] — Return sooner if: [safety triggers such as frequent hypoglycemia, foot wound, acute vision change]
