Verifying NDC Details When Setting up Vaccines
A vaccine’s NDC ID and corresponding NDC information is essential for accurate billing. Therefore, to ensure a comprehensive Immunizations billing cycle, users can view the NDC details included in the NDC Library during vaccine set up or when administering Immunizations. To view the NDC details, users can access the NDC Lookup. On the Vaccine Inventory tab, you can access the NDC Lookup to display a vaccine’s NDC ID and corresponding details. If necessary, you can override the NDC ID in the NDC ID field and select another NDC ID from the NDC Lookup. If an NDC ID is not set up in your NDC Library or if you do not have a default NDC Library, a caution indicator displays next to the field. When administering Immunizations in the Immunizations module on the Vaccine Details tab, you also have the option to access the NDC Lookup to verify or override the NDC ID. For more information about accessing the NDC Lookup refer to Verifying the NDC Details when Administrating Immunizations. Note: To

Enter NDC Information for a Charge
When you enter a charge for a HCPCS or CPT4 code that is set up in the NDC Library, NDC Data for this Charge window appears when the charge is saved. NDC Data for this Charge window allows you to entry NDC information for the charge. Depending on the number of existing NDC Ids in the NDC Library for the CPT4 code on the charge, the NDC information can be attached to the charge in the following ways: If only one NDC Id exists for the CPT4 code, then the NDC Id automatically attaches to the charge. If multiple NDC Ids exist for the CPT4 code, then an NDC Id can be manually selected for the charge. If no NDC Id exists for the CPT4 code, then an NDC Id can be manually added on-the-fly for the charge. Note: Hidden NDC IDs, are those that have been deleted from the NDC Library in File Maintenance. Hidden NDC Ids cannot automatically attach to a charge and are not available for selection on a charge. Open NextGen® Enterprise PM. Select Charges. The Charge Posting window opens. Select the desi
