                 prescription or by the request of a physician.
  Deleted        This status is used when a prescription is deleted. Prescriptions are no 
                 longer physically deleted from the system, but marked as deleted. Once a 
                 prescription is marked deleted no access is allowed other than view.

Prescription Status

A prescription can have one of the following status.

CANCELLED: This term is now referred to throughout the software as Discontinued.(See Discontinued.)

DELETED: This status is used when a prescription is deleted. Prescriptions are no longer physically deleted from the system, but marked as deleted. Once a prescription is marked deleted no access is allowed other than view.

HOLD: A prescription that was placed on hold due to reasons determined by the pharmacist.

NON-VERIFIED: There are two types of non-verified statuses. Depending on a site parameter, prescriptions entered by a technician do not become active until they are reviewed by a pharmacist. Until such review, they remain non-verified and cannot be printed, canceled or edited except through the Verification menu. The second non-verified status is given to prescriptions when a drug/drug interaction is encountered during the new order entry or editing of a prescription.

PENDING: A prescription which has been entered through OERR.

SUSPENDED: A prescription which will be filled at some future date.
