Add Deferred Script - How to add scripts onto an app patient's profile

Patients who have been dispensed medication from a pharmacy without MedAdvisor, but would like to view the medication on their app.

Until medication has been dispensed by a pharmacist, the script will not appear on a patient's MedAdvisor profile.

For patients to see what medications they currently have, pharmacists can manually add medications to a patient's profile until it is dispensed and uploaded automatically. 

Please note: We recommend to defer scripts in dispense instead of the below process.

 

Please follow these steps: 

• Select Patients

 

• Search for the patient and under User type, select App 

 

 

• Select the Scripts tab

 

• Click "Create Deferred Script: NEW MEDICATION"

 

• Add the script details. The repeats authorised should only include the number of repeats remaining.  

 

• Select Create

Please note: Once the script has been dispensed at the pharmacy, the script will update on the patient's profile. You will not need to remove the medication you have manually added.
