Service-level prescribing in areas with multiple GP organisations can streamline medication management and enhance collaboration between practices. By centralising prescribing parameters, organisations can ensure consistency and efficiency in drug administration across different sites.
Setting Up Service-Level Prescribing
To configure service-level prescribing for your GP organisation, you'll need to access the Organisation Configuration settings:
- Navigate to the EMIS Web Menu.
- Select Configuration, then Organisation Configuration.
- Within this window, click on Medication Configuration.
- Adjust prescribing options under Organisation Options to standardise medication protocols.
Benefits
Service-level prescribing allows multiple GP practices to align their medication strategies, reducing administrative overhead and ensuring patient safety through standardised protocols. This approach can also reduce dispensing errors and streamline the management of medication resources.
