Recurring Encounters
Recurring Encounters are encounter services that are set to repeat on a recurring schedule, either daily, weekly, or monthly. Each recurring encounter service consists of multiple encounter occurrences – which are the individual sessions.
Create a Recurring Encounter Service
Recurring Encounter Services set a single encounter service to repeat on a recurring schedule.
Recurring Encounter Services can be created from Schedule Assistance, or by clicking 'New Recurring Encounter Service' on any Encounter Services grid.

- Create the Encounter Service template by following the same steps as when creating a single encounter service.
- When selecting the start date, enter the start date and time for the first session of the recurring schedule. The rest of the encounter occurrences will be based on the same start time as scheduled on this encounter service template.
- Click save to save the template encounter service. Click Next.

- Set Up Recurrence Pattern and click save.
- Repeat – select the frequency of the recurrence – daily, weekly, monthly, etc.
- Every – Enter the frequency at which the recurrence should repeat – Every 1 week, every 2 weeks, every 3 days, etc.
- Days - (when Repeat = 'Weekly', or 'Monthly– Same Week') – the day/s in the week or months to repeat this recurrence.
- Week - (when Repeat = 'Monthly– Same Week') – the number of weeks into the month to repeat this recurrence – First, Second, Third, Fourth, Last.
- Day of Month - (when Repeat = 'Monthly– Same Day') – the day of the month to repeat this recurrence.
- End – select how to end this recurrence – by an end date, or a number of occurrences.
- End Date (when End is 'By End Date') – the day on which the recurrence should stop repeating.
- Total Occurrences (when end is 'By Number of Occurrences') – the total number of occurrences to generate according to this recurrence pattern.

- Click Generate Occurrences.
Create a Group Recurring Encounter
Group Recurring Encounters set a group of encounter services (e.g., for group behavior treatment, or supervisison and direct care scheduled together, etc.) to repeat on a recurring schedule.
Click 'New Group Recurring Encounter" on any Encounter Services grid to create a group recurring encounter.
Follow the steps to create an encounter, then set up a recurrence pattern and generate occurrences.
Edit a Recurring Encounter
The end date of recurring encounter services can be moved earlier to deactivate encounter occurrences after the updated end date, or later to create additional occurrences against the same pattern through the new end date.
When a change to a schedule is necessary, end the recurring encounter service on the date of the last session for the previous schedule, and create a new recurring encounter service for the updated schedule.
The end date cannot be changed to a date where there are encounter occurrences after the new end date with observations already collected on them in the Note app.
