RX305 (Lesson 6): CONFIGURING DISPENSE LOGIC
Exam
EPIC automatically determines a dispense location for an order based on:
The patient's unit
The dispense locations (pharmacy records) that dispense to that unit, in order of preference
What medications are available in each dispense location, as defined by the medication list record
attached to each one
Package (NDC)
A pharmacy's medication list tell the system the medication and specific _______________ that can
be dispensed from there.
TRUE
TRUE/FALSE: If a medication is not on your central pharmacy's medication list, the system could still
choose central pharmacy as the dispense location.
The Package (NDC)
An order comes through for a medication that is not on the central pharmacy med list. What field is
missing?
AND logic
If you fill in two fields in the same row, the system uses what logic?
OR logic
By listing a pharmacy multiple times, the system uses this logic. Each row has one column filled in. The
lines must be adjacent.
Highest DEA code
This field is a way to tell the system how to dispense controlled medications. Think of it as the "Least
restrictive DEA code." The DEA code you enter and any codes that are more restrictive will dispense
from this location.
TRUE
TRUE/FALSE: If no NDC is selected at the main pharmacy, pharmacists must select one manually
during verification.
TRUE
TRUE/FALSE: Dispense logic is set up at the Unit level. Epic evaluates pharmacies in the order that
they are listed.

TRUE/FALSE: EPIC selects a pharmacy as a dispense location if: The medication is stocked at the
pharmacy (on the med list) & there are no restrictions preventing it.
