Reconciling Parity Data

You can reconcile parity data on the OBGYN Synopsis or Pregnancy Outcomes templates.

The NextGen Healthcare system finds and notifies you of any discrepancies in the pregnancy outcomes detail data in a patient chart. If any of this data is not in sync, meaning the pregnancy outcomes detail data in the shared fields on the OBGYN Synopsis and Pregnancy Outcomes templates does not match the pregnancy outcomes detail data in the Pregnancy history grid, you receive an application message. Note that in these cases, auto-calculation continues to function and is not turned off. The system changes the color of the fields to yellow to identify the location of the discrepancy in the white editable parity fields.

To reconcile the parity data, you must make edits to either the shared fields on the OBGYN Synopsis or Pregnancy Outcomes templates, or to the data in the Pregnancy history grid on the Pregnancy Outcomes template. The edits applied are dependent on where the error is located – the error could be in the fields, the grid, or both.

After reconciliation, the warning and red exclamation badge no longer appear and reappears only if the parity numbers and grid become out of sync.

Note: Parity is automatically calculated except for the number of multiple births, which needs to be entered or adjusted manually. The Living field is renamed to Living now to indicate the total number of living children. The Pregnancy history grid in the Pregnancy Outcomes template has the Status now and the Status at birth fields to indicate Living, Deceased, and Live Infant.

For more information, select the information icon next to the Pregnancy History grid in the OBGYN Synopsis template to open a PDF that explains the Living Now functionality.
