Working with Medication Favorites

This module displays a list of medications previously added as "favorites" by you or by other members of your practice and saved for shared use. You can add, update, or delete entries.

Medication Favorites allow you a shortcut to enter medications that you commonly prescribe for your patients. Use of Medication Favorites is a two-step process:

First, enter the medication. Click New Favorite from the Custom>Medication Favorite module and complete all applicable fields. Click Save, and select whether you want to save your favorite to My List (to save the favorite for your personal use) or Practice (to save it for shared use by others in your practice). Update the Medication Favorite Name, if desired, and click Save.

Note: The Medication Favorite Name determines how the favorite is to appear in your list of favorites.

Then, when you want to enter this medication for a patient, click Favorites at the medication lookup screen. The LMR displays a list of favorites that you have saved to your personal list or that you and your colleagues have saved to your practice list. Click the medication you want to add.

To delete entries from your favorites list, click the check box to the left of the medication or medications and click Delete. The LMR displays a verification message. Click OK.
