Multiple Destinations and Internal Pharmacy

You can dispense a patient's medications to multiple destinations at the same time if a patient requires some medications be sent by mail order pharmacy and others sent to their local retail pharmacy. All medications (or if no medications designated for the interface transmission were selected) are marked to be submitted to the patient’s preferred pharmacy by default.

You can also specify the destination through the right-click menu with the following options:

  • Send to Default Retail
  • Send to Mail Order

The following setup is required to enable submission of patient medications to an internal pharmacy or multiple destinations:

  • To enable the ability to send medications to multiple destinations, you must select the Allow Sending eRx to Multiple Destinations check box on the Medication list of the Practice Preferences window.
  • To enable the ability to send medications to an internal pharmacy, you must enable sending medications to multiple destinations and then select the specific Default Pharmacy Interface from the list.
  • To designate specific medications for interface transmission, each medication must be added to the Medications by Practice Interface master list in File Maintenance.
