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]
Psychosocial (depression/distress screening) [Date] [Screening result] [Screened today / Referred / Up to date]
Social determinants [Date assessed] [Food security, cost barriers, transportation as applicable] [Resources offered / None identified]

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]
