The signature line has been removed from the After Visit Summary (AVS) and only one copy should be printed. When you discharge an inpatient (hospital, Periop, Cath Lab, ED, and HOD areas), give one printed copy to the patient/caregiver. Document that you reviewed the AVS and provided a copy to either the patient or the caregiver in the Review of AVS section of your discharge navigator. See the tip sheet via this link: AVS Documentation
