Access External Patient Education from the Problems Module

You can access the External Patient Education resource from the Problems module. The external resource collects ICD-9, ICD-10 (as available), or SNOMED CT (Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine Clinical Terms) code information for the selected problem and the patient’s age, age range, and gender. This information is passed through the InfoButton to the external system.

  1. Open NextGen® Enterprise EHR.
  2. Open the Problems module for a patient.
  3. Enter a new problem into the Problem List tab or the Billing ICD List tab, if required.
  4. Do one of the following:
    • Right-click the problem, and then select Resources > External Patient Education.

    • Select the problem, and then select Resources > External Patient Education from the toolbar of the Problems module.

    The application directs you to the external URL set up in File Maintenance.
