New patient - First eAMS Prescription
There are two instances where you may want to add a new patient:
-
The Patient Selection Wizard screen is displayed but is empty as no patients with the same initial/surname combination are found.
-
The Patient Selection Wizard screen is displayed with suggestions, but none match the patient identified by the prescription.
-
In either instance, click the new patient button.
When you check or uncheck the Include first initial matches your chosen setting is remembered for subsequent prescriptions, that is until you make a further change.
You may want to update a patient's registered GP if the he/she is not the same as the one in the electronic message. Click Prescriber selection for details.
Otherwise, click here for instructions on the next step.
