The phrase 'future plans or something you wish to examine/follow up on' refers to which part of SOAP notes?

This item tests understanding that future plans and follow-up items belong in the Plan section. The Plan outlines what will be done next: treatments to start or adjust, orders for tests or imaging, referrals, follow-up timing, and patient education or goals. This is distinct from Subjective (the patient’s reported symptoms), Objective (exam findings and measurements), and Assessment (the clinician’s diagnosis or clinical reasoning). So the future plans or follow-up items fit best in the Plan.
