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.

NDC Library in File Maintenance

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 fromNextGen® Enterprise EHR Import NDCs from the published CMS list Display NDC codes from the NDC library on theDrugstab of theService Item Library Maintenancewindow.

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.
