Reconciling Medications with the CMLV

To reconcile the LMR list to the list with information gathered from multiple sources, do the following:

1.   If you haven’t already, select the patient, go to the Medications module, and click Consolidated Med List Viewer (CMLV). The application prompts you to indicate if you have received verbal consent to view the patient's Rx History, provided by Surescripts.

2.   Click OK or Cancel, as appropriate. Regardless of which option you select, the application displays the Medications Consolidated view, either with or without Surescripts data.

3.   To display the Reconciliation screen, click Reconcile with CMLV. Again, the application prompts you to indicate if you have received verbal consent.

4.   Click Yes or No, as appropriate. The LMR displays the Reconciliation screen, with entries from the LMR on the left and entries from all other sources on the right. The source of the entry is indicated in the heading. Entries are grouped by medication class.

5.   Work with entries from the LMR list as follows:

• To verify entries, click Verify. For details, click here.

  Doing so updates the Last Updated Date for the entry on the main LMR list screen for the Medications module. To verify all entries at once, click the check box in the header.

• To remove entries, click D/C. For details, click here.

  You must indicate the reason for discontinuing. You also need to click Ok and Sign to complete this update.

6.   Work with entries from the external document as follows:

• To add entries from the document, click Add. For details, click here.

  The LMR populates the Add New lookup field with the name of this entry. Other parts of the entry (route, dose, form, and so on) are not included in the search, but can be viewed at all times in a section at the top of the screen. Search for and add the entry using standard LMR procedures. You need to click Ok and Sign to complete this update.

• To indicate that you will not be adding an entry, click Don’t Add. For details, click here.

  Doing so changes the text color of the entry to gray as a visual cue. This change is not saved beyond this LMR session (that is, the next time you access this external document, the text color will be as originally displayed).

7.   If you are done making updates, click the check box, “I certify that the LMR Medication List (including prescription and non-prescription medications) is complete to the best of my knowledge.”

8.   Click Ok (ALT+O).
