| Comments | Usage Note: To convey explicit instructions to the Pharmacist/dispenser related to this medication order. Usage Note: This data element can be used to convey any additional information to the pharmacy where the EMR has a discrete field where one does not exist in the PrescribeIT® messaging standard. Some examples of those are: 1) When 'compliance pack' is indicated on the prescription within the EMR, this field can be populated with 'COMPLIANCE PACK REQUESTED' or a statement that conveys that concept 2) When 'do not adapt' is indicated on the prescription within the EMR, the field can be populated with 'Do NOT Adapt' or a statement that conveys that concept 3) When 'no substitution' is indication on the prescription within the EMR, this field can be populated with 'No Substitution' or a statement that conveys that concept 4) When a special authorization code is indicated on the prescription within the EMR, the field can be populated with a statement that conveys that concept (i.e. LU Code ###, Special Auth Code ###, etc.) The statements used in this field should be added in a similar way to how they would display on the printed paper copy of the prescription. |
