# Refilling a Medication

Users can order a refill of outpatient medications if:

· The medication is an outpatient medication.

· The provider originally wrote the order with refills and there are refills remaining.

· The expiration date is in the past.

To order an outpatient medication refill, use these steps:

1. Go to the Meds tab.

2. Select the medications you wish to refill that meet the above criteria.

3. Select Action | Refill... or right-click on the orders and select Refill... from the popup.

The following dialog displays.

Note: The Refill Orders dialog in CPRS does not allow you to choose Park. A pharmacist would need to update the prescription to Parked when they get the refill request.

In the Refill Orders dialog, CPRS displays the medications the user selected to refill and enables the user to choose the pick method.

4. In the Refill Orders dialog, choose the Pick Up method (at Window, by Mail, or in Clinic).

5. Select OK .
