Adding Tags

To enable prescribers to search by condition, you can create a list of Tags. Optionally, you can link them to Treatment Stage, Age and/or Sex.

To add a Tag:

  1. From the Formulary Management screen, double click on the formulary you want to update.
  2. Select Tags and any existing tags display.

  3. Select + Add Tag .
  4. Complete the Add Tag screen:

    • Tag name - Enter a name for this tag, it must be unique, as you complete the options below the second half of the Tag name automatically update, for example:
      • 'UTI (urinary tract infection)' - No filtering selected
      • 'UTI (urinary tract infection), First line: Over 18: Male' - Filtering selected
    • Treatment stage - Select from None (default), First line, Second line or Third line.
    • Age - Select from the drop-down list and set the age ranges if required. Enter 'y' for years and 'm' for months, for example, '18y' is treated as 18 years, '18m' returns 18 months.
    • Sex - Select from All, Male or Female.
    Training Tip - Tag settings cannot overlap, for example, if you have a first line tag for Headache, age range 10y - 60y, you cannot have a second first line tag for Headache, age range 9y - 12y.
  5. Select OK to finish and the Tag List refreshes to include the new Tag.

You must now add drugs to your Tags, see Adding Items to a Tag for details.
