From the Dispensed Items tab you can:

• View the Not Dispensed Reason and if a claim has not been submitted it is possible to change the reason, select Edit if required.

• View the Exemption. Non-age based patient exemptions are not included in downloaded prescriptions. To ensure you receive correct reimbursement, it is of paramount importance that you maintain non-age based patient exemptions in Pharmacy Manager, otherwise your electronic reimbursement claims will indicate the patient pays the NHS levy.

  You are able to view and edit the exemption reason for an electronic prescription after you have finished dispensing. The patient's exemption status will have been recorded at the time of dispensing for inclusion in the notification and claim messages. However, if it was recorded incorrectly, it is possible to correct it before the notification and claim are submitted.

  To edit the exemption, select Edit to open the Prescription Signatory and Exemption Details screen.

  Note - Any change to the exemption made here is for this prescription only. It does not make a change to the exemption in the patient's record. To apply a change at patient level, make the alteration in thePatient Details - Exemptions.
