The Submit to Supervisor workflow is as follows:
- The NextGen® Orthopedic Suite looks to the Supervisor Required check box in the provider master file in File Maintenance to determine if the rendering supervisor requires supervisor signoff.
- NextGen® Orthopedic Suite assumes 100% of the encounters for that provider require supervisor signoff unless their name is added to the Submit to Supervising Settings grid in the Finalize Visit Settings panel of the Practice Configuration template:
- If the provider’s name is in the Submit to Supervisor Settings grid, the provider can select which encounters are sent for signoff by using the Send to Supervising Physician button on the Finalize Visit template. For more information, go to NextGen Healthcare Success Community, and download the Configuration Guide for NextGen® Orthopedic Suite.
