Filter Displayed Guidelines Using Additional Filters

You can filter the display in a number of ways on the Care Guidelines Paged View template.

You can filter a guideline from the available guideline using the Additional filters. The Additional filters can be used to refine the search using all the filter check boxes.

1. Open NextGen® Enterprise EHR.
2. Select the Additional field, and select choices from the list.
3. To search for a guideline, do one of the following:
   • Select <free text search>, and enter the initial characters of the name of the guideline.
     Note: You must enter a minimum of three characters to enable the search.
   • To enable filter based search based on the selected filter categories next to the Show selected, select Current filters.
   Based on the existing selections for Orderables, Recommended care (medication), and Recommended care (non-medication), the result appears.
4. Select Due by, and then select a date from the calendar date selection window.
   The selected date appears in the field next to the Additional filter field.
5. Select Due within, and select a time period from the View Guidelines due within selection window.
   The selected time frame causes a date to be calculated and the calculated date appears in the date field next to the Additional filter field.
6. Select Order type, a list of types of orders appears. Select an order type from the list.
   Note: Before you select to filter by Order type, you must first clear the medication and non-medication check boxes for Recommended Care (medication) and Recommended Care (non-medication). You can select the check boxes later.
   The Additional filter field is filled with the type of order you select, and the panel gets refreshed to show the orders of that type.
7. To remove an additional filter, select <free text search>, and close the window.
