Centricity® Pharmacy Fax Connect links faxed order sheets to Pharmacy workstations to create a fast and efficient way to receive and handle faxed physician orders. Faxes can be viewed, processed and maintained online, providing a permanent electronic record stored alongside the order. With Fax Connect, faxes can be viewed online at the touch of a button.

Nurses, assistants or other personnel use designated fax machines in the patient care area to fax physician orders to the pharmacy fax server. Typically one fax number would be configured to handle faxes for a standard request queue, while another would handle faxes for a prioritized STAT queue; however, other setup options are available to meet your organizational requirements.

As faxed orders are received on the fax server, software designed by GE monitors the faxes, sending each fax to the appropriate queue and preparing it for processing by the Centricity Pharmacy System. The Centricity Pharmacy Order Entry/Review window is used to process faxed request group(s). This function opens a fax viewer allowing Pharmacy to review the fax and enter a corresponding order in Centricity Pharmacy. As a result, a hard copy of the fax need never be printed in Pharmacy!

An extensive toolbar includes a shortcut to toggle between the fax queue and Order Entry windows. Optional dual monitor configuration increases your workspace, allowing you to view both the fax queue and Order Entry windows simultaneously.
