Medications: Change Orders

Once an order is created in the Doctor's Orders tab, users with the correct permissions can make changes to them.

Required Permissions
Doctors, Nurses, Super Admins, and Records Admins can create Custom Orders.

Change orders can only be initiated after an order (quick, custom, or eRx) has been created.

1. To initiate a change order, navigate to the Doctor's Orders tab and click on the Change button.
2. Make the desired changes and re-enter the justification (this field is required). You can also add a change reason which will appear on the order. Then click Submit.
1. Note: If your facility uses DrFirst/Rcopia, you can check the eRx box to send the prescription to Rcopia, if desired. When performing a change order on an eRx order, a signature will again be required in the Rcopia portal. If your facility does not use DrFirst/Rcopia, the eRx box will not appear.
3. The new order will appear in the list. Click on the text in the Order column to open it.
4. The order will show the current version at the top and include the change information below, including reason, if any was added.
