If it still doesn’t work, you may have to go back and adjust the weight of the words. The weight refers to how much VoiceWorks thinks you are going to use this word when compared to other words. You can take a word that you don’t want to use and give it zero weight so that it can’t be used.

What an Asterisk * in Front of Visit Number Means If a patient has an asterisk before their # of Visits then that means that someone has started a chart for them by filling out at least the minimum information on the Personal Page, but that no periodontal chart has been created for them yet.
