So it seems with CVS being all about workflow, efficiency, and doing more with less- why they wouldn't have developed a way to pull an 'on-hold' prescription (or at least e-rx) to another CVS?
Instead the 'norm' goes something like this: technician calls store and waits on hold. Other technician has to print the hardcopy, look up store fax number, then fax it, and the other store type in again.
I also dislike it because:
1. I have seen several times where the store simply printed the hardcopy but never deleted the prescription (even more troublesome when its a controlled substance)
2. The RX origin code is a 'faxed prescription' when its received (even if the original was an e-rx) which results in failing the monthly RX Validation as faxed prescriptions are required to have a physicians signature.
Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
