Medication Reconciliation- continue without ordering

Sometimes patients are admitted with out resuming all their home medications (example: Vitamins, supplements, etc.) The only option is the discontinue them from the home medication list or order them with the med rec and then delete the order after the reconciliation is complete. I think an option for "Continue without ordering" would be beneficial so the medication orders don't get taken away.

    Not all medications must be addressed during Admission Medication Reconciliation.

    • Any unaddressed medications remain on the Home Medication list.

    Marking a Home Medication as Do Not Continue during Admission Medication Reconciliation does not discontinue that Home Medication.

    • The medication remains available for any additional action whether that is to continue later during the stay or continue at discharge.

    • It does mark that the medication was not continued on the Medication Reconciliation screen.
