If you type and don't use the radio buttons (close the quick scrip writer) you can fill in '1 tab daily for ADHD'. After that whenever you add that medicine it will bring up your instructions which is handy since most of us have 1 set of instructions for each med that we write - eg amoxicillin 500, 1 tab 3 times per day x 10 days. Obviously if a pediatrician is one of those finicky ones that writes 3.2 ml 3 times daily, 3.3 ml 3 times daily then this will be difficult.
I will definitely have to think about that feature. It's weird though, I am starting to get used to using just the mouse. And, the amounts change a lot for us. I will say that, unlike our friends in the ED, we almost never write for tid for abx. Plus, every parent thinks tid means having to give it at school.
Plus, we need to be able to free text for the dispense. If we write for 1 large tube, we get bonked for too many characters and an error message for not staying within the restrictions.
If you figure out you need to remove the med after finishing scrip, but before you get all the way to print you can remove individual scrips by highlighting and hitting remove med.
True. But, if you do write for six meds, and you happen to get to the print window, you are out of luck if you need to delete one. But, that's not a terrible thing I guess. And, the meds are still in the list to just click on.
I think that the default zip is the one saved in that particular pt. demographics.....if you just would move to a smaller city you would have less pharmacies - I only have an average of 2 associated with each zip code (and I have beautiful Elk, deer, bears, etc. on the way in).
Now see, I learned something. So, we can make it 7 instead of 8. That's what I get for using Bill Gates from Seattle as my test patient. Now we just have to put a big sign in the waiting room, which says everyone must use a pharmacy in their zip code.:)
And, we do have deer and Meese.
Thanks Steve.
Oh, and I owe you $1,000.
