Start by selecting your patient and clicking on the Documents tab in the left side menu. Here documents regarding your patient can be uploaded to MMEx and stored against he patient's record. The Documents page also shows all letters written in MMEx and any forms completed in MMEx regarding the patient.
To upload a new document, click on the Upload File button. Type a subject in the Subject field that will make your letter easy to identify amongst the list of others in the patient record (see Figure1).

All messages or reports that you receive in your MMEx inbox can be associated with a patient as either a letter or a document. To do this, open the MMEx message from your Inbox and click on the Associate with Patient button. Next, select the patient from your list of patients. You will now be able to view the message from the Documents section of the patient record and can delete the message from the inbox if desired.
Documents are filtered by categories so they can be more easily identified:
- All (shows the full list of documents from all categories)
- Documents (such as word docs or scanned PDFS that have been uploaded)
- Letters (letters written about the patient using the MMEx Letter Writer, or from your Inbox that have been associated with the patient)
- Images (such as a photo of the patient or a sketch drawn using MMEx)
- Forms (a record of all forms completed about the patient using MMEx)
To download and view the document at a later date, simply click on the item in the list.
