    Note: Through the FH Medic administration site, the FH Medic application can be highly configured to display or hide individual fields, require or not-require fields, and even change field labels. As a result, different fields may appear for you than what is shown in the screen shot.

    Information on using the FH Medic administration site to control the fields in the FH Medic application is available in the FH Medic Administrator's Guide .
