Description
Use the Profiles page to view, create, or edit the format for the profiles list on the Order Patient Samples page. You combine frequently ordered order choices into one group of order choices or a profile. Using profiles may save time during order entry because you only need to select one profile instead of selecting individual order choices for the order.
