NextGen Office customers using NexHealth Forms have access to an integrated medical history form, which automatically syncs patients’ allergies, conditions, and medications to the patient health chart in NextGen Office.
The Medical history form is dynamic, and it changes options for medical alerts (conditions, medications, and allergies) based on the medical alerts already in your health record system. These options are read directly from your health record system.
For use with NexHealth Forms
