Nursing and Provider staff may access Medication Reconciliation from Web Client > Patient Chart > Medication Reconciliation.

 

Pharmacy users may access Medication Reconciliation through System Menu. From the Pharmacy Department, select a patient and then access Medication Reconciliation from the Pharmacy selection screen.

 

Flow Charts: When documenting on certain flowcharts from the patient chart, there may be special-coded questions that launch the Medication Reconciliation screen when they are selected:

Initial Interview Flow Chart: Select the special-coded Home Medications question. If this path is taken, the system will only display destinations designated as admission destinations. The user may add Home Medications at this point. See Admission Reconciliation.

Discharge Summary and Instructions Flow Chart: Select the special coded MEDICATIONS question. If this path is taken, the system will only display destinations designated as discharge destinations. See Discharge Reconciliation.

 

NOTE: If drug allergies must be entered before order entry but drug allergies have not been addressed, the following prompt will display when accessing Medication Reconciliation: "This patient has no allergy information entered. Patient allergy entry is required before ordering Medication(s). Would you like to enter allergy information now? Yes/No." Select Yes to enter allergies or No to proceed to Medication Reconciliation.
