Which Epic function helps create and reuse standard blocks of documentation across notes?

• A. Quick Text Library
• B. Care Gap Outreach / Population Health Outreach
• C. Macro / SmartTemplates Fast Insert
• D. MyChart Messaging

Answer: (C)

The idea is to use templates that you create once and can insert into any note, keeping language and structure consistent across encounters. In Epic, Macro and SmartTemplates with Fast Insert let you build standardized blocks of documentation and then drop them into notes with a quick action. You define the block once, possibly with placeholders for patient data, and reuse it across many notes, ensuring uniform wording and content wherever needed. Quick Text is useful for reusable phrases, but templates with Fast Insert are designed to provide more complete, standardized blocks that span notes. The other options focus on outreach or messaging features, which aren’t about creating and reusing standardized documentation blocks.
