Verifying Prescriptions are Enrolled in AutoFill

Once you have enrolled your patient in AutoFill and selected the appropriate prescriptions, you can verify that all active prescriptions requested have been enrolled by selecting the Profile tab from the Patient folder. A WB indicator will display beside each prescription that is enrolled.

These prescriptions are now placed in the To Do tab until the next eligible fill date arrives (based on Pharmacy Preferences).
