How to Create an Order Set
ScriptSure Cloud ERX v2.0 and later includes the ability create Order Sets to the drug database and then select an order set to prescribe for any patient. Simply put an order set is multiple medications you can easily select to prescribe together; these can be any medications you want to be a part of the order set. When the order set is selected for use, any medications a part of that order set can be sent for a patient. A use case for this is to easily prescribe mediations commonly prescribed together.
The steps below allow you to select medications, select a strength, quantity and directions for the medication as a template to use for any patient you want. You can then add a second medication, a third and so on. When the Order Set is actually selected to use for a patient, you will have the option to modify the individual prescriptions that make-up the order set.
The steps below show you how to Setup an Order Set for the users of the application. Any user with permission can setup a compound medication. Permissions are granted to admins of the application.
