Pharmacy Orders that must be Faxed to Pharmacy

When in an integrated environment, when you save, most pharmacy orders are automatically transmitted to the integrated pharmacy. There are certain order types that must be communicated to the pharmacy to be processed and filled.

  • IV Orders - must be faxed.

  • Compounds - must be faxed.

  • Any order that exceeds the 140 character limit in the Order Directions.

  • Bulk House Stock Supplies - continues to be communicated to pharmacy as before integration.

  • Check with Pharmacy for any other faxing requirements.

  • Notify the pharmacy by phone of any STAT orders that cannot be filled from the emergency box.
