The Psychiatry Eval tab is designed to be a stand-alone template for a psychiatrist, nurse practitioner (NPP), or other Behavioral Health professional who is qualified to conduct and document an initial psychiatric assessment of the client. The information on the Psychiatry Eval tab overlaps with the data recorded on the Comp Assess tab. Of the 17 panels on the tab, only two (Physical Health History and Issues for Children/Adolescents) are not identical to the corresponding panels on the Comprehensive Assessment. If a Comprehensive Assessment was completed for this client prior to the Psychiatric Evaluation, much of the information is filled.
It is important to note that medications can be prescribed during the psychiatric evaluation. The Behavioral health billing section is available at the bottom of the Psychiatry Eval and Progress Note tabs to submit billing codes. Some providers may want to use the SOAP tab to document additional elements of the physical exam. For more information on the SOAP template, go to NextGen Healthcare Success Community and download the latest Getting Started User Guide for NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine.
