External Prescriptions

For prescriptions marked as External fills, intended to be given to the client to take to a pharmacy outside of your hospital, the prescription label and data cards can be designed differently (if necessary) to comply with your state or province's labeling laws. Because of this, the reports are stored separately from the internal pharmacy prescription labels. (Note that the Fill Outside Rx process utilizes the internal pharmacy labels, since your own pharmacy will fill those prescriptions.)
Otherwise, these labels in the system are identical to the Prescription Label and Prescription Data Cards defined below.
