I'v noticed this with several meds when writing refills from within the chart, but not when writing new prescriptions. It appears that the codification (Is that a real word? It must be since the spell checker has allowed it.) has mysteriously "disappeared" for some drugs which were previously codified in the database. This has happened several times when refilling fluticasone nasal spray from the current medication list. When attempting a refill from the current med list, the med is correctly spelled out complete with dosage, etc, but the entry is italicized and highlighted in yellow and a warning in red appears to the right stating "Free text items can NOT be sent electronically via Surescripts..." If I then begin to re-type the entry, it shows up in the drop down list and appears to be properly codified. There is a bug in the drug database. I've submitted this as a bug to AC, but it would be nice for someone from AC to address it here.
