Drugs recurring history

🚀 Feature Proposal

It's necessary to provide support for one-time or long-term drugs prescription.

Motivation

In the legacy version 1.0.0-beta, when you add a drug during a visit, it's just for that specific visit. When you click on a new appointment, the long term medicines (which are to be continued to viewing) is not available to the doctor. The doctor has to go back to the last visit to see the drug.

Example

When you add a drug, there should be an option asking whether its a one-time prescription or a long term prescription. If it's a long term drug, the medications should be automatically added to the next visit, but with options to discontinue the drug.

yes, In the current version, when you add a drug during a visit , its just for the visit, and when you click on new visit , the drugs which is to be continued is not available to the doctor, we have to go back to the last visit to see the drug, as a doctor, i feel its very annoying, its best to have an option like , when you add a drug there should be an option asking whether its a one time prescription or a long term drug, if its a long term drug, the medications should be automatically added to the next visit, but of course with options to discontinue the drug.

Hi. Thanks for offering you support on this issue but we are in the process of integrating HL7, loinc and other standards. This issue has to be put on stale while we are working on it. You can check the progress or help on core repo.

Just to chime in here, if not already considered, you might want to consider having a medication start and stop date so that the recurrence is not an open ended one but rather one with a finite duration such that when the stop date is reached, the medication can potentially be auto discontinued
