I was considering it as a "renewal" order, which should not be included.
However, now I think that may be wrong???

  Why wouldn�t you count the adjustment in medication without a lab order?
The manual plainly states �include written, telephone, fax, or consultation
orders for new or altered treatment.�  An adjustment in Coumadin dosage
would be altered treatment with or without lab values.

  I don't count the Coumadin as a new order if its only an adjustment in the
dosage. However, if there is a lab ordered, I'll count it.
