In the PHA module the pharmacist can enter a med order and place it in a pending status on tab 4. This places the medication in the "pending" status. The medication does not display in the eMAR and does display on the active order screen.
Our expectation was to have the Pharmacist enter all the home medications that were not started at the time of admission in this "pending" status and have the provider "change" the order to active when they wanted the med started. This routine does not work at this point for providers- there is a DTS out there to fix it but we may not get it until SR4. The pharmacist can change the setting - but at this point the provider changing it in POM does not work.

Meditech? PHA...RXM...AOM...POM...OE........where is there a "Pending Status" for medication orders? Sounds similar to the "Profile Med" or "Historical Med" functionality from RXM. I'd be interested to hear back from you on this ASAP. Thanks. Kevin McConnell, PharmD.

If you put the medication at a "pending" status they do not show up on the eMAR but do show up as "pending" on the active order list. We are planning to use this for home medications that are not started when the patient is admitted.

The physician can write an order to resume or just re-write the order if they want to re-start. Charlie Charles Downs Pharm.D. Washington County Hospital Inpatient Pharmacy 251 E.

Currently our pharmacy discontinues that order and the Physician has to rewrite the order when they want it to restart.
