To write a prescription for a Suboxone drug, the doctor must have a special DEA#. This new DEA# is in addition to their existing one, not replacing it. QuickSCRIP is now able to warn you when the doctor file is not marked as having a Suboxone DEA#. For this to work, three things must happen. They are:
- The Drug must be marked
- IF the drug has Suboxone or Subutex in the name, you don't have to do anything else to this drug.
- To mark a drug as a Suboxone Drug, go to line 35 and look for the option Suboxone or Subutex Drug
- The Doctor must be marked
- Pull up the Doctor in Doctor File Maintenance
- Press the F11 key to go to notes
- Add /SUBOX=Xxxxxxxxx setting the x's to the doctor's Suboxone DEA#
- The Warning options must be set
- Go to your Pharmacy Main Menu
- Choose 3. Utilities
- Choose 3. Business/Control File Maint.
- Choose 4. Additional Rx Custom Screen #1
- Choose 5. Warn Disp Suboxone?
- Set this to one of these options:
- Y - QuickSCRIP will check to make sure the doctor is marked for these drugs.
- O - Same as Y option but will make you type OK to go past the warning.
- S - Same as Y but will not allow the scrip to be filled until the doctor is marked.
- N - QuickSCRIP will not check for doctor to be marked for these scrips.
