Purpose: This article explains how to search for a pharmacy, select one for a patient, and save pharmacies as favorites in the iPrescribe app
Audience: All iPrescribe users
Tip: If you cannot find a pharmacy, use fewer search terms in the search. Less is More!
Search using only the first few letters of the pharmacy name and the ZIP Code of the pharmacy; any search criteria that do not match the pharmacy record will be excluded from the search results.
1. Start on the iPrescribe home screen and tap the New Rx button.
2. Search for and select a patient. Either:
- Use the search bar at the top, then select that patient from the search results, or
- Select a patient under the section labeled RECENT PATIENTS.
Note: Not seeing your patient? See Add New Patients for instructions on how you can add patients to your account.
3. On the patient profile screen, tap Change to the right of the section labeled Pharmacy.
4. There are 3 ways to find a pharmacy:
Select a pharmacy from the Recents tab (10 most recent).
Note: When adding or changing the pharmacy for the patient, you can tap on the circle next to the desired pharmacy from the Favorite or Recents pharmacy list. The pharmacy will now display as the patient's pharmacy on the next screen. Repeat the steps to select a different pharmacy.
