Thanks for all the responses. I set the max dose field to 100000 and they get the warning, max dispensing dose exceeded, continue? Only one person chose to ignore the warning in the last 3 days. I will pursue custom to make this an error rather than a warning if it is still an issue. Many of you responded saying this is an education issue. I agree, but since we are not set to admin billing, it does not cause a problem with the bills. I think that over charging the patient by thousands of dollars probably puts an end to this issue.

Check page 2 in the customer define parameter of pharmacy. There is a max dose qty and max dose dispense qty setting. Another thing, you might build a rule and attach in pharmacy for max dose. Thanks, Becky -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tara Mcnamara Sent: Monday, March 12, 2007 1:55 PM To: Meditech L Subject: [MEDITECH-L] BMV-scanning the NDC/RX into the dose field Hi All, Since going live with BMV, we have not been able to prevent the nurses from scanning the RX or NDC into the dose field. This is not for every med. It happens with our 0 dose and with Non-formulary meds( we have a med named non-form and we put the med into the dose instructions.) I run a report everyday to check for errors. I also taught the nurses how to run an admins by user report so they can simply check their meds for any big numbers. They do not all do it and I am the one worried about what the chart will look like. What are others doing about this? I don't want to send out a mean message telling them this could affect their license and it is also not fair to them because I am not able to program something into meditech to prevent these kinds of errors. Any suggestions?
