This feature is turned on per clinic. If you don’t see the Print Label option, ask your administrator to enable label printing for your clinic.
Save or print a label
- Open the patient’s chart and go to the Medications list (the provider-administered doses).
- Find the dose you want a label for and click the actions menu (the button at the end of the row).
- Choose Print Label.
- Review the label preview and edit any details that need to change.
- Select the Prescriber and Clinic location. The prescriber fills in the name, NPI, and DEA number. The clinic location fills in the clinic name, address, and phone number.
- Choose an action:
- Click Save Label to keep the label with the dose without printing it.
- Click Print Label to save the label and record that it was printed, then send it to your printer.
What’s filled in for you
Wherever the information is already on file, the label is filled in automatically:- Clinic and prescriber — the prescribing provider’s name and credentials, your clinic name, and the location where the dose was given, plus that location’s address and phone.
- Patient — name, date of birth, phone, patient ID, and shipping address.
- Medication — the drug and strength, plus the directions.
- Dates and lot — dispense date, prescription date, and the lot number.
- NDC and expiration — pulled from the batch the dose was drawn from, when available.
Things you may need to fill in
Some details aren’t always on file, so you can type or adjust them right in the print window:- Prescriber — if the provider who gave the dose doesn’t have a DEA number saved, pick a prescriber who does from the dropdown. A provider’s DEA number is saved on their profile under Settings → My Decoda → Profile.
- DEA number, refills, and days supply.
- Shipping address — start typing to search for an address, or enter it by hand.
- Dispense, NDC, and dates — adjust anything that isn’t correct.
