To do so, go to Orders screen from Physician Dashboard. Then, in context menu go to Order Sets and choose Medication Reconciliation :
Search for the prescription in Previous Medications section and select it. Keep selected those Active CPOE Orders you wish to keep.
Click Save.
You will see a confirmation message, select Yes.
Renew Prescription
Where a prescription that is about to expire is renewed with the same data. There are two methods for this:
Renew from Worklist
In Worklist there is a category for prescriptions about to expire (called About to expire : Medications ) , select it to see the details of these prescriptions.
Then, in Action column select Renew Order. If you wish instead to discontinue this order, click Cancel.
