NextGen Office- NextGen® Office Practice Management Enhancements

NextGen Office EHR Practice Management Enhancements

Transaction Reporting System Update 

We fixed an issue in the transaction reporting system, which now accurately reflect adjustment reversals and align with the AR Rollforward Report. Users are advised to re-run their transaction-based reports. 

Report Date of Service Improvements

We fixed a report issue where the date of service was converting the date/time of the encounter based on the computers timezone. Now all encounter reports reflect the date of service based on the encounter location time zone. This issue mainly impacted encounters created with a timestamp around midnight pacific time.

Claims with Incomplete Service Lines 

Users can now edit the claims that have missing service lines. We have removed the Ignore and Proceed option to ensure users will not be able to submit claims with incomplete service lines.

NextGen® Office EHR Enhancements

Encounter View Permissions

We fixed an issue where users without View permissions were be able to view encounters in Open Encounters.

ABN (Advance Beneficiary Notice) form update

Updated ABN form that is generated by NextGen Office during the lab ordering process. The new version expires January 31, 2026

CMS122 Diabetes: Hemoglobin A1c

We fixed an issue for inbound order results with LOINC codes from the CMS122 Diabetes: Hemoglobin A1c value set that were not being included in the measure calculation. This issue was resolved by adjusting the code logic to account for LOINC codes with dashes, ensuring that relevant lab orders are included in the measure calculation.
