Maybe Im just not aware of all the laws but why do providers without dea numbers(ie hygienist) appear in the prescriptions list.

There needs to be a default no dea number no listing
or a check-box to add them to the list.
or the assigned dentist be the default for the prescription.

I thought hygienists could prescribe certain things. It seems harmless to have the extra clutter, if slightly annoying. I think your real complaint is that you have to choose the provider each time. To fix that, go to your Provider List and move your favorite provider to the top of the list.

no its the clutter that I am talking about. only providers who can prescribe should be listed.
