Batch Ordering Schedule II Controlled Substances on the iPad

If you need to order a schedule II controlled substance medication for a 90-day supply, for example for patients who maintain the same prescription, you can do so using the Batch button when sending a prescription from a patient's chart. This will create 2 additional medication orders with effective dates 30 days apart.

1. Go to a patient's chart and select Send eRx.
