NDC Library

The NDC (National Drug Code) library enables you to create an NDC drug product list to help you manage billing for drugs that are given in the clinic. In addition, the library enables you to define the relationships between NDC and CPT4 codes. NDC is a universal product identifier for human drugs. Each drug product listed is assigned a unique 11-digit, 3-segment number. This number, known as the NDC identifies the labeler/vendor, product, and trade package size. The NDC Library provides the capability to: Have multiple NDCs for a SIM Populate a claim with an NDC from NextGen® Enterprise EHR Import NDCs from the published CMS list Display NDC codes from the NDC library on the Drugs tab of the Service Item Library Maintenance window. Display NDC data lines for an imported charge in Charge Entry on the NDC Data for this Charge window. CAUTION: To enable the NDC feature for use in your practice, you must first select a default NDC library in Libraries Practice Preferences. NDC Library Secu

Add or Modify an NDC (National Drug Code) Library

NDC is a universal product identifier for human drugs. Each drug product listed is assigned a unique 11-digit, 3-segment number. This number, known as NDC identifies the labeler or vendor, product, and trade package size. Access to the NDC Library enables users to enter new NDC ID values to the library. A user only has access when the security right for the NDC Libraries module is selected (under MODULES > File Maintenance) for the group that the user is in. Open File Maintenance and select Libraries > NDC. The NDC List window opens. From the NDC List window, select the open menu button to add or open an existing NDC library. The NDC List Maintenance window opens. Search for an NDC code using the filter criteria. Enter or modify the NDC information manually. Note: In the Drug Unit Count column, enter the dosage form which is based on the second segment of the NDC number. This segment indicates a specific strength, dosage form, and formulation. For example, NDC number 00004-1964-04 indi

NDC Library Security Rights

By having access to the National Drug Code (NDC) library, users can enter new NDC ID values to the library. A user can access this library only when the security right for the NDC Libraries module is selected under Modules > File Maintenance for the group the user belongs to. For information about setting up security rights, go to the NextGen Healthcare Success Community and download the latest System Administrator Guide for NextGen Enterprise. Parent topic: NDC Library

Permissions for Adding NDC IDs to the NDC Library

If a user adds an NDC ID while administering an Immunizations Order in the Immunization module, the system uses the NDC ID for billing purposes. If the practice’s NDC Library does not already contain the identified NDC ID, and the user has rights to add NDC IDs to the NDC Library in File Maintenances, the system also adds the new NDC ID in the NDC Library. To prevent the system from updating File Maintenance when certain users add NDC IDs in Immunizations, the practice can restrict the update rights for those user groups in System Administrator.
