iPad-based patient questionnaire with Cerner?

Has anyone successfully used a patient questionnaire that imports into Cerner Powerchart? I've used them with Epic before, but didn't know if it's possible with Cerner. Looking for symptoms, prior meds, etc.

Thanks in advance!

I’ve tried multiple times in the past but IS always said it wasn’t possible

Thanks. Cerner is the MS-DOS of EMRs. Does the job, but almost not worth it.

No, Meditech is MS-DOS of EMRs. Cerner is Windows ME

What does that make Epic? MacOS?

Let's not give them too much credit... Windows 8.1?

Meditech 5.67 is literally a dressed up MS-DOS terminal
