Aimee, it also happens to us sporadically. We have not been able to figure it out, either. Anyone have ideas? We are MAGIC 5.5.2.

This means the refill list lists these drugs and the pharmacist has to credit the patient so they are not double charged. We've had a task open with Meditech but they haven't found a fix. We turned on the dictionary audit trail for PHA.DRUG and PHA.INV but since it does not show old and new values it really doesn't help. It only shows how many times Pharmacy staff has had to go in and re-enter the Y. Has this happened to anyone else?

We have some Physicians using POM, in which case the orders must be Verified by a Pharmacist before they pass to the Pyxis. The majority of our orders are still written in the chart, faxed to the Pharmacy, and then entered into Meditech by a Pharmacist. Those orders pass directly to the Pyxis. The only orders which, by policy, are double-checked by another Pharmacist are high risk meds (Chemo, TPN, etc) which are not dispensed from the machines. I'm not sure that Meditech even has a mechanism for Pharmacists to verify Pharmacists, unless you give each Pharmacist two separate login ID's: one for Not Verified and one for Verified.
