Topics Approve Refill Search:  
A Patient very often calls up the Doctor to request for a specific Drug/s Refill. On selecting this option it will prompt the user to select a specific patient. It tries ensures that there is no live encounter for the selected Patient. It now creates a new encounter with Run Date and Encounter Type as Refill. It then goes to CPOE Rx to create a Prescription. CPOE Rx has an option wherein the Doctor can view/select Drugs prescribed to the Patient earlier. This makes Ordering a Refill easier. It is likely that the Doctor would also like to add a supplementary Drug like an Antacid. After the Prescription is Saved, on Approve the Refill Encounter is automatically closed.
