External Patient Education refers to educational resources that are available while connecting to a code (such as ICD-9, ICD-10, or CPT) or a description (such as RxNorm) to an external resource accessible through a URL that is set up in File Maintenance. When you right-click a code or term, the HL7 InfoButton accesses a URL to an external resource and launches the website in a web browser. Note: NextGen Healthcare recommends that you use the External Patient Education link to access resources that are useful to your patients' recovery and care, such as health behaviors, preventative education, and instruction about behaviors and activities that can assist in patients understanding about their care. Websites with InfoButton-compliant functionality may require subscriptions. Vendors (companies that provide patient education) are not required to adhere to the HL7 standards.
