Setting Up and Maintaining Your Practice's Orders Workflow Foundation

To schedule, process, track, and complete your order more efficiently, you need to set up the NextGen® Enterprise EHR Orders module to meet your specific practice needs. Once you set up your NextGen® Enterprise EHR Orders module, you can then update and maintain these settings as your business needs change and the Orders process evolves over time.

Before performing Orders tasks, such as creating and sending Lab and Radiology orders, you need to set up the appropriate system rights, preferences, and tasks for the Orders module. The setup enables you to establish the workflow foundation for your practice or enterprise and enables providers and the clinical staff to access and use the appropriate functionality.

The Orders module setup functions and options provide flexibility and enable you to establish a strong foundation for your Orders life cycle.

After you complete the setup tasks, to begin working with orders, go to NextGen Healthcare Success Community and download the latest Orders Module User Guide for NextGen® Enterprise EHR.
