Company Setting: Prescription Settings and Rules - Prescription Refills - Change Status when Refilling a Prescription

For a user that decides to refill a medication from the Prescription History window, you may find it helpful to have the status of the prescription that you are refilling changed from New to Current without you having to make the change yourself.  Generally, medications with a status of 'New' will show up in the Plan portion of your note while medications with a status of 'Current' show in the Subjective portion of your note. If you would like for the prescription status of refilled medications to remain unchanged, turn this setting off.

Configuration Note:
