ePA from the Workflow Module Inbox

When you set up Clinical Tasking for Electronic Prior Authorization (ePA), users receive tasks in their inbox that notify them of certain ePA status changes that they need to take action on. Tasks can be routed to a provider or to a workgroup depending on the setup. Having ePA tasks listed on the Clinical Tasking tab in Inbox helps prescribers and clinical staff monitor responses on prior authorization requests sent from NextGen® Enterprise EHR to the pharmacy benefits managers (PBMs). The responses can include status updates when a prior authorization request needs clinical questions answered or other prescriber input, as well as approvals and denials from the PBM. Having notifications sent to the inbox improves the efficiency of the ePA process by enabling you to manage some ePA actions without opening the Medications module each time you want to check an ePA status or take action. The ePA tasks have Action Required and Approved statuses. You can go directly from the task in the inbo

For more information on Inclusion and Exclusion List viewing restrictions, go to the NextGen Healthcare Success Community, and download the following documents: System Administrator Guide forNextGen®Enterprise Patient Demographics Guide forNextGen®Enterprise Orders Module User Guide forNextGen®Enterprise EHR Assigning tasks to other users, as well as accepting, declining, or deleting tasks, requires different levels of user rights.

Electronic Prescribing (eRx) Refill Requests

When you electronically submit patient medication prescriptions to a pharmacy, you may receive a refill request from that pharmacy. These refill requests are unsolicited and until you respond to a request, you have no other interaction with the pharmacy that requested the refill. Each refill request creates a task in the Workflow module and the Manage Refills window in the Medications module. For more information on working with eRx refill requests in the Medications module, go to the NextGen Healthcare Success Community, and download the latest Medications and Medication Allergies Modules User Guide forNextGen®Enterprise EHR and ePrescribing User Guide forNextGen®Enterprise EHR. NextGen® Enterprise EHR evaluates the status of the medication in the patient's chart. If the request can be matched to an existing patient, the information appears with the option to approve or deny the request. An alert appears if a matched refill request is linked to an inactive medication. Note: A mismatch
