Enhanced Order Functionality


Axxess Palliative Care now provides enhanced order functionality that streamlines the process for adding and updating supply, DME and medication orders. Users can now add supply, DME and medication orders directly from a patient’s chart, employee’s profile or medication profile.

Add Orders


To add an order from a patient’s chart or employee’s profile, click the Add Task button.


In the Add Task window, enter the preferred date, select Order from the Task menu and select the associated insurance under Payer. Click Save Task to finish adding the order.


Open the order from the patient’s chart, Patient Schedule screen or Employee Schedule screen.


Under Order Information, select the ordering provider. The following buttons now appear under Order Types: Medication, Supplies, DME and Other.


If the order is not for medication, supplies or DME, select Other.


Clicking any of these buttons will direct you to the corresponding section in the patient’s chart. Changes made in a section of the patient’s chart will become part of the order you created.


Additionally, you can choose to start or add to an existing order by adding medications, supplies and/or DME to the patient’s chart.

Patients tab ➜ Patient Charts ➜ Edit Profile ➜ Pharmacy and DME tab


Select Update DME to add DME. Upon selecting Update DME, the system will prompt you to create an order.


If Yes is selected, the system will search for any open orders associated with the patient. You have the option to add a new order using the Create Provider Order button, or add your changes to an existing order by clicking Select Order on the open order.
