Generating Authorization Requests for a Batch
When a Batch is scheduled, Prescriptions that have no repeats remaining can have authorization requests sent to the prescriber.
To send authorization requests for Prescriptions in a Batch:
-
On the Workflow Workbench, use the calendar control buttons to navigate to the Ready Time date for the Batch.
-
Select the Auth header to sort the Prescriptions for that date by their authorization status. Prescriptions with no repeats remaining have a NOT status and will be Grouped at the top or bottom of the list, depending on the ascending or descending arrow.
-
Highlight all Prescriptions with a NOT status that belong to the Batch.
A Batch ID is assigned to all Prescriptions in a Batch. Use the Batch ID column on the Workbench to identify Batch Prescriptions.
-
Select Rx > AuthRequest. The Authorization Request Form window opens.
-
Complete the Authorization Request Form window as per usual, and fax the forms to the prescriber(s).
