View Prescription

Clinical users can view prescriptions received from their patient's assigned medical devices using removable media, modem or Bluetooth-enabled device. Prescriptions transfer into Care Orchestrator each time the application connects to a patient's therapy device using a modem or Bluetooth-enabled device. When Care Orchestrator establishes a connection using one of these two supported communication interfaces, prescriptions are available and displayed on the Prescription tab of the patient's Patient Detail screen.

Trilogy family device settings transfer into a patient's prescription recording using the Data Card Utilities, but only when the patient is assigned the serial number of the device found on the removable media. The prescription settings will display on the Prescription tab of the patient's Patient Detail screen.  

The patient's prescription information is updated to match the current device settings received from the upload from these supported communication interfaces. The Status updates to indicate the location of the transferred information. The Status is an indicator that you can use to manage the patient device settings. The Status reflects the most recent state of prescription settings updates with respect to the patient's therapy device and patient record in Care Orchestrator

Warning: Prescription changes should only be made on the order of a licensed physician. Creating or changing a prescription should only be completed by a trained medical professional. A patient’s prescription should be verified as correct before transferring it to the patient's therapy device.

Note: After several minutes of inactivity, your Care Orchestrator session expires. The application asks you to login again to continue working. If your session expires when viewing a prescription, you may see an "Error in prescription application" error when you log into the system. Refresh the page to remove this error.

Note: Users with Trilogy devices can see view-only reports than cannot be edited within Care Orchestrator. See Trilogy Support for more information about additional features for Trilogy devices.
