This is a process for Ambulatory Chemotherapy Orders. The background color for the UCM, sessions, and orders lists in this application are based in the site (not white, as seen in inpatient Provider Order Entry). If necessary, click Switch to Outpatient to access the Ambulatory Chemo application.
Orders and prescriptions are available to reprint as long as they are still active—that is, they have not been discontinued or expired. See Overview of Chemotherapy Active Order Expiration.
Prescriptions for medications are available for chemo agents as defined in a protocol or regimen. At present, only providers at DFCI locations can generate online medication prescriptions when ordering chemotherapy. See Writing Prescriptions for Oral Investigational Chemo.
If you haven't already:

Click to select a print session from the list displayed. Prescriptions are labeled Chemo Prescription Session.
Select a printing option:
For orders, click Medical Records Copy (ALT+M) or UnOfficial Duplicate Copy (ALT+U) as appropriate.
For medication prescriptions, click Print Chemo Prescription(s).
Type your signing key when prompted.
Click OK (ALT+O).
If prompted when printing a unofficial copy, click Yes (ALT+Y) to add an medical records copy, or No (ALT+N) to print only the unofficial copy.
If prompted to include hypersensitivity orders, click Yes (ALT+Y) if the patient is having a reaction that needs treatment; otherwise, click No (ALT+N). (Orders for treating hypersensitivity reactions are numerous, and if the patient does not need the treatment, you can avoid adding these to the printout.)
