One-liner#

A consistent refill workflow reduces errors, denials, and inbox load.

Minimum requirements (suggested)#

• Active patient relationship + medication list reconciliation
• Last visit date and next follow-up due date
• Indication is documented somewhere in the chart (problem list or A/P)
• Monitoring is up to date (labs/vitals) for meds that require it

Refill decision checklist#

• Confirm dose, route, frequency, and adherence
• Check interactions and duplicate therapy
• Confirm recent vitals/labs relevant to the medication
• Provide an interval-limited refill if overdue for monitoring, with a follow-up plan

Documentation (when renewing or changing meds)#

• Medication action (continue/start/stop/adjust) + rationale
• Monitoring plan (what to check and when)
• Follow-up interval
