Managing Patient Medications

Keep track of your patient's current medications with automated accuracy and easy manual updates.

Table of contents

Nextvisit AI automatically captures and maintains a current medication list for each patient. The list updates between sessions based on new information from your encounters.

What you can do

After completing at least one session with a patient, you can:

  • Add new medications
  • Edit existing medications (dosage, frequency, status)
  • Delete medications that are no longer relevant
  • Print the complete medication list for patient records or referrals

Where to find patient medications

  1. During an encounter or progress note: Look for the “Medications” section in the right sidebar when medications were discussed in the session.
  2. In the patient chart: Navigate to the patient’s chart and click the “Medications” tab for a full view.

Editing medication details

Click any medication to open a detailed view that includes:

  • Medication name and generic equivalent
  • Dosage (e.g., 10mg)
  • Formation (tablet, capsule, liquid, etc.)
  • Frequency (once daily, twice daily, as needed)
  • Start date and stop date (if applicable)
  • Status options including Current, Discontinued, Titration, Tapering, or Unknown
  • Prescriber information
  • Comments section for additional notes like “Take for sleep before bedtime”
  • Drug interactions and warnings when applicable

Medication status options

  • Current: Patient is actively taking the medication
  • Discontinued: Medication has been stopped
  • Titration: Dosage is being gradually increased
  • Tapering: Dosage is being gradually decreased
  • Unknown: Status needs clarification

AI confidence indicators

Nextvisit AI shows confidence levels for automatically captured medications. Look for confidence percentages and controlled substance indicators where applicable.

Notes

  • At least one completed session is required before you can manage a patient’s medications
  • Review and confirm medication details before finalizing documentation
  • Use “Mark Incorrect & Remove” if the AI captured incorrect information
