* This topic applies only if you are using DoseSpot for electronic prescriptions.

You can view a patient's electronic prescriptions in Dentrix Ascend.

To view a patient's electronic prescriptions

1. If the correct patient is not already selected, use the Patient Search box to access the patient's record.

   

2. On the Patient menu, under General, select Prescriptions.

   The patient's Patient Prescriptions page opens.

3. Do any of the following:

   • In the Search box, begin typing part of a drug name. The matching prescriptions appear in expandable and collapsible sections by time frame (for example, 0-6 months). Continue typing as needed to narrow the search results.

     

   • Expand the sections to locate a prescription written in the past six months, six months to a year ago, or longer than a year ago.

     

4. Select an electronic prescription. Electronic prescriptions are denoted by the word "Electronic."

   

   The selected prescription appears.

   

Note: Prescriptions also appear on the Progress Notes tab of a patient's clinical record. The date, amount dispensed, drug description, type (Prescription or ePrescription), and prescribing or approving provider appear for each prescription.
