I almost never can finish a note while the patient is still present. I thought I'd do really well by prescribing under the Plan Rx's and fax them off to the pharmacy....as later might be the end of the day. I then forwarded the note to my box. When I went to finish later, I noticed that the Plan new Rx's had populated the "current meds" section making it look like they were already on the new med. I would have thought that this wouldn't happen until I signed the note, not just forwarded it for later completion. Hopefully, someone can advise on this.
