Transfer To Another Pharmacy Screen
The Transfer Rx screen offers the user options to mark a prescription as transferred. This screen has no function to electronically transfer the prescription to any pharmacy unless both pharmacies are under same ownership, and is only used as a way to symbolically mark the prescription in your system as transferred, unless as aforementioned.
To mark a prescription as transferred to another pharmacy: bring up the prescription in Edit mode on the Rx Processing screen then click on the ‘Transfer Rx to Another Pharmacy’ tab. Fill out the remaining information and click on the ‘Transfer Remaining Refills’ button to transfer the prescription to the other pharmacy. For New York (NY) and Florida (FL) clients, the software will display an additional option to 'Transfer One Refill'; this is by state law, and is designed in case the pharmacy cannot fill that script, but the patient will come back for the next refill. You can also "Transfer & Print" if you wish to keep a printed record of the transfer. In order for the prescription to be transferred, there have to be remaining refills on the prescription. You cannot otherwise mark the prescription as transferred.
To mark a prescription as transferred from another pharmacy: bring up the prescription in Edit mode on the Rx Processing screen then click on the ‘Transfer Rx from Another Pharmacy’ tab. Fill out the remaining information and click on the ‘Save Info’ button to transfer the prescription to the other pharmacy. You can also "Save & Print" if you wish to keep a printed record of the transfer.
Transfer From Another Pharmacy Screen
To reverse a transfer on a prescription, bring up the prescription in Edit mode on the Rx Processing screen then click on the ‘Reverse Transfer’ button.
To view information on a prescription that has already been transferred to another pharmacy, bring up the prescription in Edit mode on the Rx Processing screen and click on the ‘Transfer Rx to Another Pharmacy’ tab. OR enter the Rx number on the ‘Transfer Rx to Another Pharmacy’ tab and then click on the ‘View Transfer Info’ button.
ELECTRONIC TRANSFERS OF PRESCRIPTIONS
As mentioned, this is only allowed when both pharmacies are under same ownership. While this may change, it is currently limited for liability reasons and cannot be changed, no exceptions. When the prescription is transmitted by a partner pharmacy, the store it's intended for will receive the prescription in their Electronic Mailbox such as any other ERx message.
