Manage SNOMED Codes on the SNOMED Config Template

The SNOMED Configuration practice template enables you to add and edit SNOMED codes that appear in NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine. The SNOMED Configuration practice template is linked to the symptom master tables and fields for Review of Systems (ROS). During a code submit at the end of a visit, a SNOMED CT code is added for any symptoms that are marked as positive during the encounter. The SNOMED Configuration practice template is updated when there are changes made to either the symptom_master or the symptom_master2 templates.

SNOMED Codes

Quality Reporting Stage 2 regulations require a patient’s chronic problems to be coded using SNOMED . The Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine - Clinical Terms ( SNOMED CT®) is a comprehensive collection of clinical terminology that was originally created by the College of American Pathologists. It contains healthcare concepts with unique meanings and formal, logic-based definitions organized into hierarchies. The SNOMED Codes provides the ability to consistently index, store and retrieve clinical data across specialties and sites of care. The SNOMED information is mapped to ICD codes. You can generate reports or export the information to support administrative and clinical reporting as well as reimbursement processes. Parent topic: Create and Manage SNOMED Codes
