In EMIS Web, managing warnings about maximum prescription issues in automatic groups requires configuring the Medication Configuration settings to ensure that prescribing options are correctly set up for users, PCs, and the entire organisation. Here are the key steps:
Accessing Medication Configuration
- Open EMIS Web and navigate to Organisation Configuration.
- Select the Users section and choose the required user profile.
- Click on Edit User in the ribbon and navigate to the Role section.
In this section, ensure the following settings are correctly adjusted:
- Authorise Prescriptions – Ensure the user is authorised to prescribe.
- Permit Medication Issue Warning Override – Set whether users can override medication issue warnings.
- Safety Settings – Configure compliance and safety warnings to alert users if prescriptions exceed the maximum thresholds.
Setting Safety Warnings
Within Medication Safety settings, configure specific warnings for maximum prescription issues:
- Set alerts for unauthorised prescription issuance if the number of allowed issues is exceeded without review.
- Specify warning parameters for repeat prescriptions, ensuring compliance with NHS safety guidelines.
