Select SNOMED CT Codes for Quality Reporting

If you do not bill from NextGen® Enterprise EHR but need to meet the visit code criteria for Clinical Quality Measures (CQMs), you can use a SNOMED CT® code instead of a CPT code.
  1. On the Finalize (BH) template, in the Evaluation and Management Coding panel, select the SNOMED Type (optional) link.
    The SNOMED Type template opens.
  2. Select a SNOMED CT code.
  3. Select Save & Close.
    The NextGen® HQM (Health Quality Measure) application uses the selected code at registry reporting time.

    For information on configuring SNOMED CT Codes in the SNOMED Type template, go to NextGen Healthcare Success Community and download the Custom DB Picklists System Template for NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine.
