Extended Tab Field	Province	Description
Written Rx Date and Rx Effective Date	British Columbia	Both the Written Rx Date and Rx Effective Date are sent to the EHR.
Interval Days	British Columbia	The Interval Days is sent to the EHR and disabled on refills. If Interval Days is 1, a Frequency of Dispensing MMI and CS Code must be selected for the prescription. If a code is not selected upon Fill, a validation error appears, and the cursor focus is brought to the CS Codes field in the Rx Detail EHR tab. Once a Frequency of Dispensing MMI and CS Code is selected, it will be retained on refill.
Expiry Date	British Columbia	The Expiry Date is sent to the EHR. On the Rx Authorizations Profile, if no expiry date was entered at the time of creating the prescription, the Rx Expiry Date will not appear, but the prescription will only be valid for as long as current regulations dictate based on the written date.
