With Clinical Form Management in DrChrono, you can choose the type of clinical note you are creating. Each form type has a LOINC code associated with it. When the C-CDA is generated, the LOINC code associated with the form type will be included.

To build a form navigate to:
- Clinical > Clinical Form Management
- Select new form
- Click the settings gear icon
- Click Edit Form Info.

Forms will appear under the "Additional" tab for use within your clinical note. Once the clinical note is signed and locked, its contents will be available in the C-CDA file; however, clinical notes will only appear in the C-CDA if the associated forms have an assigned form type. Additionally, persistent forms will no longer automatically populate in the "Assessment" section of the C-CDA—only forms with an assigned form type will have their content reflected in the rendered clinical note PDF and included in the C-CDA.
In the XML file for the C-CDA, the LOINC code associated with the form type is included.
Below is a list of form types and LOINC codes.
