Notes Tab in Rx Detail

Notes can be added for a prescription in the Rx Detail Notes tab. The Notes tab is useful to record any additional information that is important to that prescription for documentation and audit purposes. Notes from the Patient, Drug, and Prescriber Folders associated with the prescription can also be viewed here.

Prescription notes from the original prescription are visible in the Notes tab for all refills. All other notes display if they exist in the associated folders when the prescription is processed.

To learn more about the Notes tab, select the expander icons More in the image below. For province specific fields, refer to Table 1.
