I have asked for this before. Obviously, NPs in Oklahoma are the only ones who have this problem or more people whould be struggling with the problem. We are required by law to have our name and our prescriptive oversight physician's name on the prescription header. So with 5 NPs in our practice we've used the address lines. We can't use any middle initials because there just isn't room. I'd LOVE to be able to make each NPs prescription for just that NP once he/she is logged into AC. Since we all have to have (because there isn't any other solution for the prescriptions) exactly the same prescription header we're stuck with our dopey (no pun intended) header with 6 names on the header.....not a pretty sight.
Also would like to be able to inactivate whole groups of patients (like those not seen for 3 years or more). Instead we have to do the search and then do them one at a time. Tedious is the nicest thing I can say about this process.
Now that we have over 6,000 active patients, AC is slowing down. During our busiest times it takes a full 5 minutes to get email from the front desk to the NP office about 125 feet. We could hire squirrels to do a better job if we still used paper!
Thanks, Glenda
