Overview

​
What are Elation Note Templates?

Templates are prebuilt, reusable formats designed for specific visit types—like annual wellness exams—or procedures where documentation can follow a consistent structure. They help reduce manual typing, prevent omissions, and support a smooth, organized workflow during the visit. The Elation Note has its own template builder that lets you take advantage of both standard and custom blocks to create more flexible, structured templates.
Legacy visit note templates are still supported in the Elation Note and can be applied by typing the /template command into the note. If you need to edit a legacy visit note template, refer to the instructions on this Help Center page .

​
What templates are made available through Elation’s template library?

When your Elation account is first set up, it will come preloaded with the following Elation Note templates:

​
If I delete a custom block that was added to a Template, what happens to the Template?

If you need to delete a custom block, we recommend reviewing your templates and removing the custom block first. If you don’t remove a custom block from a template before deleting the custom block, the template, draft and signed note will show an empty block where the custom block used to be. Our team will be working on a fix for this soon.
