Select a user group. Select the Rights tab. Select the expand list button for Operation to view all the Operation rights. Under CCOW Context Management, select the Join/Leave Context with Context Manager right and set its Access Rights to Yes. Note: A default enterprise and practice will be read from the NGConfig.ini file in order to login and set user and/or patient context. Each application must ensure that this value is set properly when logging in (non-CCOW) and when switching enterprises/practices. Parent topic: Clinical Context Object Workgroup (CCOW) Setup

Clinical Context Object Workgroup (CCOW) Setup

Clinical Context Object Workgroup (CCOW) is an HL7 standard protocol that enables separate healthcare applications to synchronize in real-time so that each individual application refers to the same patient, encounter or user. This synchronization is called "Context Management." Context Management is a method for making separate clinical applications operate in a unified manner. The CCOW protocol shares the name of the active user between different applications that are operating on the same computer. When CCOW is implemented, a user needs to log onto only one NextGen® Enterprise application. The other NextGen® Enterprise applications functions as if the user is logged onto them as well. NextGen Healthcare supports the receiving and setting of ‘context’ at the following levels: User – Context is defined by mapping user records of perspective NextGen Healthcare and 3rd party applications. Patient – Context is defined by mapping NextGen’s MPI to an EMPI. Note: When CCOW is enabled, a CCOW

Use CCOW to Notify the Context Manager

The following explains how CCOW notifies the Context Manager when a context change occurs. Select a patient. The application notifies the Context Manager to start a context change. The Context Manager notifies the mapping agent that a context change is occurring. The mapping agent supplies the Context Manager with other identifiers known to be linked to a patient. With the Sentillion SDK Context Manager, this happens automatically when the patient context changes in the active application. With the dbMotion NextGen® Enterprise EHR Agent Context Manager, the user must initiate the patient context change by interacting with the dbMotion NextGen® Enterprise EHR. Agent utility application which hovers over the screen of the application. The Context Manager notifies the other applications that a new patient context has been proposed. Each participating application indicates whether or not it can apply the next context. If one or more of the applications cannot apply the new context, a messa
