How to dispense repeats from a non-PBS Pharmacy

Fred Dispense

Overview

Usually, dispensing a repeat from a PBS pharmacy will require you to enter the Original Pharmacy Approval number, however this is not applicable for repeats from a non-PBS Pharmacy. 

Once an unapproved pharmacy is used to dispense a valid PBS/RPBS prescription, that supply, and all subsequent repeats, must be supplied as non-PBS (private) supplies.

Steps

1. Start processing the script as usual.
2. Enter the letter P at the end of the Repeats field.
   
3. Clear or leave the Orig Pharm field blank.
4. Finish dispensing as per usual.
