The Outgoing Prescriptions Report gives a detailed view of prescriptions sent from your practice, so you can track prescription statuses and review prescribing activity. You can filter by patient, patient address, drug, controlled substance schedule, pharmacy and date range, then export the results with the columns you choose.
Common uses include:
- Reviewing all prescriptions for a specific medication or group of medications
- Pulling a list of controlled substance prescriptions by schedule level (for example, Schedule II stimulants)
- Reporting on prescriptions for patients in a specific state or zip code, such as for state monitoring or compliance reviews
- Checking which prescriptions were sent, printed/faxed, errored or are still pending
