Unfinished Orders from NextGen Care Population Management Hub

You can complete unfinished patient orders that are part of a bulk order created from NextGen Care Population Management Hub. A bulk order is used to simultaneously order the same lab and/or radiology (diagnostic imaging) tests with the same provider and location for multiple patients in a practice. The bulk order includes tests that are set up in in File Maintenance from the NextGen compendium. After the bulk order is placed, it is split into individual patient orders, which are separately managed. When the order is created, it is associated with a same-day, unlocked clinical encounter for a given patient, if available, or a new patient encounter is created. Unfinished patient orders originating from NextGen Care Population Management Hub need to have required fields or actions completed before they can be sent or printed. Unfinished orders may not have a diagnosis or a vendor or could not be sent to a vendor directly over the interface because they did not have all the necessary data
