Test Code Data Sets

Each item in the Test Codes data set maps a code or description to a test item. Mapping enables you to assign a more commonly used description or code to a test. More than one mapping can be configured for a test. In the following example, we examine an ECG procedure and how the Test Codes data set works in the NextGen® Enterprise. The following is a list of the test descriptions or test codes that are mapped to the test ECG: Electrocardiogram ECG Computer Analysis Only EKG ECG 93000 93010 G04003 G0405 G8704 Each value represents one row in the Test Codes data set. If the Test Code of ECG maps to the ECG test in the Protocols data set, the NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine order_ table is used to verify the test status (in some cases, the system may also check the Procedures module). If the Test Code of ECG maps to the ECG record in the Test Date data set, the Test Type of the Test Date record indicates which database table to use to verify the test status. The Order_ table, Orders modu

Data Sets Setup Practice Template

The Data Sets Setup practice template stores codes and text descriptions for specific tests. The test name must match the Test Name value from the Test Dates data set on the practice template. The DHPI Test Codes data set on Data Sets Setup enables you to apply synonyms for test results on the NextGen® Adaptive Content Engine templates. The synonyms represent descriptions or codes that map to a single test or procedure. The synonyms are used to reference the test in the Protocol data set or the Test Name in the Test Date data set. The DHPI Test Code data set grid includes the following columns: Test name - used by the practice to identify an order for a diagnostic, patient procedure, or lab Codes - the code used by the reference lab or outside study/procedure location to identify the test at their location for ordering or billing purposes Description - the description for the test used by the reference lab or outside study/procedure location Add a New DHPI Test Code to a Data Set Test
