Access External Patient Education from the Orders Module

You can access the External Patient Education resource from the Orders module. The external resource collects the LOINC code or CPT4 codes for the selected lab result and the patient’s age, age range, gender, and observation interpretation flag (such as normal or abnormal). This information is passed through the InfoButton to the external system.

  1. Open NextGen® Enterprise EHR.
  2. Open the Orders module for a patient.
  3. Select the result, and then select Resources > External Patient Education on the Orders module toolbar.
    The application directs you to the external URL set up in File Maintenance.
