With the Supplies window, your agency can enter supplies that are dispensed to the patient, without regard to the employee dispensing them. This window is primarily used to record supplies that are not entered through Service Entry/TimeLog – that is, supplies that are entered without being associated with an employee. If your agency prefers to associate an employee with dispensed supplies, Allscripts recommends that you enter supplies through the TimeLog window. (In TimeLog, the employee must be authorized to dispense supplies.)

The Patient Supplies window tracks the necessary information for dispensing supplies to patients such as the date the supply was provided, the service code, the supply code, description, quantity, lot number and cost.
