In CCD, use the Prescriber Organiser to find and manage information on your prescribers. This section explains how to use these screens.
The Prescriber Organiser workspace displays a full list of all your prescriber records and the Reference space displays all the information about a selected record. Including prescriber number, name, address, contact information, and type.
Use the Prescriber Organiser to:
- Browse the prescribers in your system.
- Perform Prescriber actions such as adding, editing, deactivating/reactivating, and highlighting. These actions can also be performed from the Dispensing screen. However, if you are focusing on prescriber maintenance rather than dispensing it is more efficient to use the Prescriber Organiser.
- Merge Prescriber ’ details.
- Deactivate prescribers.
- Highlight prescribers.
