My Current Method-
Created and Using A New Procedure Prescription and Procedure Button Prescription.
In Procedure notes - Use Auto notes With Single selection for-- Antibiotics/analgesics/....categories, Dose, Dispense,Signature,Provider LISTS . Easy on the doctor to Just click away and all records are stored .
Now the Doctor messages the reception -Printer location(in my clinic, it could be anywhere )
The receptionist copies and pastes the notes to service notes and Print Letter--- Sheets Letter format modified to print our prescription captures service notes and other required input data. Whola there you go.;
Yes I understand the limitations and risks, All doctors are strictly required to check Medical conditions before Prescribing as we are bypassing the autocheck.
Though this Increases One step of Copy Paste but that is well compensated by Easy Categorisation of Medications for quicker pick rather than searching.
Thanks all

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but with hydrocodone going schedule II today, this would be a great benefit since I've got to use the special paper now for most everything. Are we any closer to it?

Good News
Version 16.3 allows printing of Multiple prescription on a single sheet
Requesting OD to permit formatting of sheets as per individual needs , therefore if one were to format only say - drug,disp,and sign then it should be permitted.
Also If each operator wants to select his format, one should be able to select default sheet type as per criteria, if more than one custom sheet are made available
Thanks again all
