If this is really a problem, perhaps you should look at why the orders are being linked in the first place. Generally you link orders that are supposed to be administered together, such as Demerol + Phenergan. When the prescriber orders one to be discontinued, it implies the other is to be discontinued as well. Hence the default response.

Discontinue?". Of course, the default response is Yes, so they can <Enter> through it without noticing that there are multiple linked Rxs. But to answer your question... No, we've never used a Rule for this situation.

Does anyone have a PHA rule that will flag during a Rx DC, when an Rx is "Linked" to warn the user that they are discontinuing a linked order? I know that you get somewhat of a pop-up when you are in mode individual. However, our pharmacists process orders function defaults to mode quick batch, and they like it that way.
