Medication Favorite Groups

If you have defined medication favorite groups in NextGen® Enterprise EHR, the favorite groups appear for a patient on the New Rx view in NextGen® Mobile. If you have not defined any favorites, a message appears stating that there are no favorites. If the specific brand of the selected favorite medication is not available, a message appears for you to select from the available brands.

When you select a medication favorite group from the New Rx view, the list of medication names in the group appears with the corresponding data entries for the following fields saved in NextGen® Enterprise EHR.
  • Sig
  • Quantity
  • Units
  • Refills
  • PRN
  • Limit Renewals
  • Generic OK
  • Duration

When you select a medication from a medication favorite group, the values defined for the group is filled in the corresponding fields in RxDetails. Based on PRN and Limit Renewals selection in NextGen® Enterprise EHR, the PRN and Limit Renewals check boxes appear selected or cleared on the Rx Details view. The comments you enter for a medication favorite group in NextGen® Enterprise EHR appear in the Non-Clinical Notes to Pharmacy field. If needed, you can edit the fields for your patient on the RxDetails view.

Medication favorites can only be defined or changed through NextGen® Enterprise EHR. You cannot create or modify your favorites list using NextGen® Mobile.
