Reorder Forms

CMS (Serial Prescribing) items are printed on the therapy reorder form with [CMS] next to the drug name along with the due for renewal date. CMS and Preferred pharmacy are printed on the forms.

Printing Newly Added CMS (Serial Prescribing) Items At Another Time

Important - If you are adding CMS (Serial Prescribing) items in advance of printing (eg transferring their repeats to CMS (Serial Prescribing) in anticipation of future printing of CMS (Serial Prescribing) items), you are prompted that there are unprinted items. This message appears for 48 hours after the script has been added, so care needs to be taken if you do not want to print them on that date. Select Continue WITHOUT printing.

When you wish to print at a later date, go back into the patient, to the CMS tab, select the printer icon / F9 and select the ALL tab which appears in prescription manager at the bottom of the screen. Select the items to be printed and press F9 / print and the scripts are printed with the updated date, which also updates in the scripts screen / and journal.
