Discontinue a MAT Order

Let's review how to discontinue a MAT Order. Discontinuing a MAT Order essentially cancels the order and prevents future dosing. After discontinuing an order, the provider can create a new order, if needed. 

1. Open the patient chart and click on the MAT Order tab.
2. Next, click on the Discontinue Order button.  
   

   

3. Enter the Discontinue Reason.
   
• Sign and Submit. 
4. If the user discontinuing the order is not a provider, use the Discontinued By drop-down to select the name of the physician who requested to terminate the order. Then, use the Discontinued Via drop-down to choose the method the discontinued order was communicated.  
5. Click Submit. 
6. In the Order History section, you can click on the arrow to view the discontinued order. 
   

   

7. The past order details and dosing information can be reviewed here. 
   

   

Important: If a patient is discharged with an active MAT order, you will no longer see the Discontinue Order button under the order. To discontinue this order, you must remove the discharge date from the facesheet, discontinue the order, then add the discharge date again. New doses will not generate past the patient's discharge date and can still be closed with an active MAT order.
