The "master" NDC that Meditech is referring to, is the NDC # in 5-4-2 format. This format is required on page two of your Drug Dictionary. Many times the manufacturer does not print the NDC # in 5-4-2 format. Example: Glycopyrrolate 0.4mg/2mL by American Regent has the NDC on the product as 0017-4602-25. To make it in 5-4-2 format a zero needs to be added prior to the first section: 00017460225, which is what is on page 2 of your drug dictionary. Then the 0017460225 (without the leading zero) needs to be added as an ALT NDC. The ALT NDC's do not need to be manually keyed, but can be scanned into the system via the Quick Add ALT NDC # function. You will want to use this function to make sure everything in your formulary scans.
