Dx Groups Reference Systems Template

This template pulls in functionality from other system/practice templates into a central location for managing reference systems, diagnosis groups, codes, and order sets. Diagnosis groups are based on triggers for order sets, care guidelines, and so on, as used by NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine. Diagnosis categories are set up in File Maintenance to be used in the NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine applications such as the diagnosis search window.

Configuring Systems, Diagnosis Groups, and Codes

The Dx Groups Reference Systems practice template supports ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes for default diagnosis codes in the NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine framework. It consolidates diagnosis code functionality to one location and provides consistency in the way templates access diagnosis codes. This requires retiring and modifying templates, the removal of all hard-coded ICD-9 codes from the existing templates and moving the functionality to the practice template. For example, as part of updating Common Assessments for the ICD-10 conversion project, the diagnosis types within the Pediatric framework have been migrated into the Dx Groups Reference Systems practice template. It provides you with a quick and easy access to configure their systems, and makes annual code updates easier. The actual codes are in File Maintenance. The new functionality considers the code effective and sets up the expiration dates and deleted code indicator in the Master File. This document provides you with instru

Managing Reference Systems

Creating a group is only beneficial if it is associated to a reference system, for example, order sets. A reference system is the logical grouping of diagnosis codes. The packaged reference systems are locked down to prevent breaking the system by removing crucial data. In the Add Reference Systems section, fields are available to add new reference systems. If a new reference system is created, the system must account for existing code restrictions based on the reference system. When the Restrict Code check box is selected, the restriction takes effect and allows only one ICD-9 and 10 code. Information text displays as follows: "These categories have a maximum of 1 ICD-9 code and 1 ICD-10 code and are used to default a diagnosis code to an order." This panel enables you to add, edit, and update a reference systems. Add a New Reference System Edit an Existing Reference Parent topic: Dx Groups and Reference Systems
