QuickPicks

QuickPicks are a way to enter standard visit information with fewer clicks, by saving the entries in a template after filling it out for a typical visit. For example, if you ask the same HPI questions for most total hip replacement post-op visits, you can save those questions as a QuickPick, so that when you click the QuickPick for another encounter, it fills the template based on what you saved, and you can then make just a few changes for that specific patient.

Many NextGen® Orthopedic Suite templates have the QuickPick tool bar in the upper right below the workflow tabs.

• The star icon opens QuickPicks for the rendering provider.
• The double star icon opens the System Set, or other providers’ QuickPicks that are available to all users in the practice (depending on configurations).
• The floppy disk icon opens a template for you to save or update a QuickPick.

• The refresh icon refreshes the entries on the template with any new information that has been entered recently (for example, by others working on the same patient’s chart elsewhere, or through a module in which you entered data).

• The task icon opens the Add New Task template to be able to assign users action items for them to perform. The recipients receive task notifications via the Inbox.

• The eraser icon in the QuickPick toolbar enables you to erase all information entered on the template. When you click it, a window opens for you to confirm that you want to erase all data. If you select Yes, the window closes and all entries on the template are erased. If you select No, the window closes.
