To write outside prescriptions (Non-VA Rx):
1. Complete the non-VA order (orders => Non-VA/OTC meds)
2. Accept the order
3. Click on file, refresh patient information
4. Make a new note titled NON-VA MEDICATION RX
5. As long as you refreshed the screen it will auto populate everything (all orders will show on one prescription) – then you can sign and print and physically sign the paper for the patient to take the Rx to the pharmacy or fax the Rx to the patient’s pharmacy
