EHR Generate Encounter Codes

If you do not set a default encounter code, your EHR Clinical Quality Measures (CQM) encounters will be zero. To automatically generate encounters based on completed procedures, use the Insert Encs tool.

Note: We recommend setting a default encounter code before you start a reporting period so CQM encounters are created every time you complete a procedure. See EHR Default Encounter Code.


  1. In the Main Menu, click Setup, Chart, EHR Setup Window, then click EHR Settings in the upper left corner.
  2. Click Insert Encs.
  3. Enter a start and end date for the date range.
  4. Click Run.

    You will see a note of the number of encounters inserted and your CQM denominators will be changed.
