Creating SMARText Medications
This lesson will explain how SMARText medications must be created so they are able to be ePrescribed.
SMARText Medications
Medications items to be ePrescribed cannot be created by end users. These items contain coding in the background necessary for ePrescribing, drug interactions, and database searching. Medications for ePrescribing are created and maintained by SOAPware and Multum, the national drug database. Medication items can, however be duplicated and customized in the users local database.
Finding the item
Items can be searched on the online library using the SMARText Items Manager or a Shift F11 search.
Duplicating the Item in the SMARText items Manager

Medication items can also be edited and created in the patient's chart using a Shift F11 search.

- Highlight desired item that has a green arrow. Items with green arrows are created by SOAPware and contain necessary background coding for ePrescribing.
