Insurance for someone involved in a motor vehicle accident (not workers comp):
Plan ID: AUTRX
Member ID: This is their policy/claim number
I'm no expert, but I've found that it's sometimes policy or claim depending on if it was a for-fault or no-fault accident. Additionally, I would recommend adding the lawyer's phone number and the date of the accident to the "Patient's Comments" section of the EMR.
RXGRP: "Insurance company's name" (AKA "GEICO" or "STATEFARM")

One sheet of paper has RXs that weren't scanned. Either because you missed it and didn't scan it, or because it's genuinely missing from the READY.
One sheet of paper has RXs that were scanned, but don't belong in your pharmacy's READY area. This can be for two reasons:
They were deleted/transferred RXs that ARE NOT in your pharmacy's work queue and can be removed and returned to stock; OR
The RX leaflets that were scanned are not accurate but ARE in the work queue. In this instance, leaflets are to be reprinted and replaced (after ensuring that the drug/quantity/manufacturer are correct on both the leaflet and with what you have ready in the actual bag).

Go on Zebra (its easier)
Go to the "RxInventory" app (green pill logo)

If you're scanning the big order for the day, just scan a non-C2 tote's paper and it will choose the correct invoice for you.
If you're scanning an order from FedEX/UPS, choose the correct invoice number from the ones listed.
Scan all the totes' papers. It will make you skip C2 audit totes. Put the C2 tote aside and scroll down for steps for the Pharmacist on how to receive C2s.
If there are any other audits that need to be resolved, RXI will tell you what you need to do. Alternatively you may also sometimes need to manually receive an order rather than scan it in.
Once finished receiving, select "Done" on the top right.
Select "Done" again.

If there's none of that medication in stock, type in the NDC and insert quantity "0"
Press the green "enter button" on the keyboard.

FQHCs are federally funded nonprofit health centers or clinics that serve medically underserved areas and populations. Provide primary care services regardless of your ability to pay.
Services are provided on a sliding scale fee based on your ability to pay (so if you make under a certain amount of money per year, services will cost less).
