Reason & Description

A Cancel Request is sent for e-prescriptions electronically via SureScripts. When a user discontinues a medication, the system sends cancel request to the pharmacy automatically provided the medication was prescribed electronically.

A Cancel Request is also sent when re-prescribing a medication. For example, if a user prescribed medication with the wrong  pharmacy, sig, quantity etc. Once its re-prescribed, a cancel request is sent for the previous prescription and a new prescription is also sent. The pharmacy sends a response to these requests. These responses are logged in the ‘Cancel Response’ section.
