  1. Request to have the Doctor's notes field appear in the eScript information box in Fred Dispense Plus. This information is available in other dispense softwares.

    We had an incident where a psychostim script was missing CA authority. The prescriber was adamant that she had noted it down. We then dispensed the scripts at another pharmacy (different software) and could view the doctor had written the CA code in "doctors notes"

    "Doctors notes" also shows up on medview. It would be helpful for it to appear on fred dispense plus too as we don't use medview often.

  2. In fred classic under external SN totals, if putting in an external total of 10, then maximum $ value was restricted to $77.00 (ie 10 x 7.70). The new system allows for higher totals in the value section, ie you could set $100, and the system will auto reduce to $77.00.

  4. Some hospitals provide a date of birth when requesting patient histories, having the ability to both see and search for the Date Of Birth (like we can for address) would greatly reduce selecting the incorrect patients or having to open multiple patients when search for patients with same/similar names

  5. Remove scripts that been put on hold from the Holding/Deleted Scripts report when they have been successfully reclaimed. At the moment scripts remain listed as 'on hold' in this report even though they have been reclaimed. This makes it difficult to determine which scripts have and have not been reclaimed when going through this report.

  6. Would it be possible to add the wholesaler PDE number to the screen that appears once the script is dispensed? Currently the label appears and the following tiles: coding sticker, warnings, safety net, CMI. It would be very beneficial for ordering products we do not keep and more importantly high cost fridge items which we cannot return. We usually dispense the item first obtain the PDE number and then use this to enter into our wholesaler portal to double check we have the correct product.
    Currently we have to try and remember to obtain the PDE when dispensing the script…

  7. AusDI CMI Retrieval for Selected Dispensed Product in Wait Screen

    Description:

    Currently, Fred Dispense Plus integrates with AusDI to allow printing of Consumer Medicine Information (CMI) for the last dispensed product via the AusDI tile. However, a significant workflow issue arises when a user forgets to print the CMI for a previously dispensed item and subsequently dispenses another product.

    Problem:

    When a user selects a previously dispensed product from the "wait screen" (or similar screen where dispensed items are listed) and attempts to retrieve the CMI via the AusDI tile, the system retrieves the CMI for the most recently dispensed…

  8. It would be great if the digital basket's could be scanned at the till to pay for the prescription items and that would automatically reset the basket. I believe you can scan an address label into Fred POS and that brings up the scripts for that patient on script link. Could the digital baskets have the same ability to do that?

  9. Script audit shows un/successful scan check but would like this to also show the actual barcode that was scanned (both for successful and incorrect events).
    Similarly, would also like this to show in the Scan Check statistics report (particularly to identify unsuccessfully scanned items)

  11. Do you have the capability to set default directions for Schedule 3 medicines that we can customise ourselves? This feature would be helpful for dispensing technicians, as it would save time by eliminating the need to manually input dosage instructions or notes for each prescription.

  12. If Medview could recognise DD scripts as having a 6 month expiry that would allow an alert popping up when we go to scan it in to the queue as well as disappearing from MySl altogether.

  13. Allow pharmacist to scan the product barcode when selecting a product for dispensing.
    This cuts down the search time when selecting products for dispensing - given the large range of generic products now available

  14. In Fred Office we can change the colour scheme and in Fred Classic the colours are vibrant and make sense. The colour scheme of Plus is limited and low vibrancy, the icons on the side (which are irrelevant to patient safety) are brighter than the actual dispense interface.

  15. When searching for a drug in the Drugs List, there is not Stock on hand column. I can see it when using F7 or when dispensing but seeing it in the drug list search will help me identify which items need to priced (the ones with SOH showing)

  16. In ScanCheck pressing F10 should take you to the final check screen of that drug.

  17. Please add a button to stop prompting for a safetynet to be issued.
    For example if the patient is an individual who is CTG registered and has a concession card there is no point issuing an SN card as price to patient doesn't change.
    It currently prompts after they reach 36 scripts EVERY time you dispense a new script until the end of the year. This is very annoying.

  18. F11/GS and G will only display the Drug PBS code selected on initial search.
    With the amount of 60 day supply medication increasing, selecting the incorrect PBS code is also becoming common for manul scripts.

    Having a Generic Drug search, eg GD from the drug field, to show all PBS codes for the generic drug, would help reduce dispensing errors as we currently have to mov back to the Drug field and edit the drug select to then find the correct PBS code.
