I have had the same intermittent problem with prescriptions that I did not plan to send being listed as sent along with controlled drugs. I than have to go back and modify that they were not actually sent so that when patients call for refills they are not told that refill were sent last month, for example. A pain and time consuming. No particular pattern. It is a pain having to recodify medications that were already codified. I have been wondering why some drugs suddenly appeared to be inactive. Thought I (or a nurse) was doing something wrong. After reading this thread I see the problem lies somewhere else in the system. Frustrating, like I have extra time to spend after trying to meet all of these charting requirements in order to get paid... Theo
