First Electronic Death Certificate

Today we entered our first electronic death certificate. It was surprisingly easy, except when it came time to fax the record to the doctor, we were at a loss. It seems the tutorial and orientation never actually covered the process to do this. So we called the help desk and they pointed us in the right direction. We are currently waiting for the doctor to sign and fax it back to the system. We anticipate that happening tomorrow. After the doctor signs and faxes back, we take the information provided and enter it into the death certificate, then forward it to the state for approval. My only concern is reading some of these doctor's handwriting. I'll let you know how it turns out.
