----------------------------------------------------

| DISPLAY ‘ADD MEDICINE’ AS AN OPTION ON THIS SCREEN|

----------------------------------------------------


----------------------------------------------------

| ROSTER DETAILS: |

| TITLE: PERSON'S-PRESCRIBED-MEDICINES_1. |

| |

| COL # 1 HEADER: PRESCRIBED MEDICINE |

| INSTRUCTIONS: DISPLAY NAME OF PRESCRIBED MEDICINE |

| (DRUG.DRUGNAME) |

----------------------------------------------------


----------------------------------------------------

| ROSTER DEFINITION: |

| THIS ITEM DISPLAYS PERSON'S-PRESCRIBED-MEDICINES- |

| ROSTER FOR SELECTION AND ADDITION OF PRESCRIBED |

| MEDICINES. |

----------------------------------------------------


----------------------------------------------------

| ROSTER BEHAVIOR: |

| 1. MULTIPLE SELECT AND ADD ALLOWED. |

| |

| 2. LIMITED DELETE ALLOWED. INTERVIEWER MAY DELETE |

| MEDICINES ADDED AT THE SECCTION AS LONG AS CAPI|

| HAS NOT YET CREATED THE LINK BETWEEN THIS |

| MEDICINE AND THE EVENT. |

| |

| 3. EDIT DISALLOWED. |

| |

| 4. ANY MEDICINE ADDED TO THE ROSTER SHOULD BE |

| FLAGGED AS ‘CREATED’ THIS ROUND. ANY MEDICINE |

| SELECTED AT THE ROSTER SHOULD BE FLAGGED AS |

| ‘SELECTED’ THIS ROUND. THIS FLAGGING SHOULD |

| OCCUR AT EACH PERSON’S-PRESCRIBED-MEDICINES- |

| ROSTER THROUGHOUT THE INSTRUMENT (UNLESS |

| OTHERWISE SPECIFIED), THE FIRST TIME THE |

| MEDICINE IS ADDED OR SELECTED DURING THE ROUND.|

| FOR EXAMPLE, IF IT IS ROUND 1, ALL MEDICINES ON|

| THE ROSTER WOULD HAVE THE FLAG ‘CREATED – |

| ROUND 1’. IF A MEDICINE IS CREATED IN HS, BUT |

| SELECTED IN MV, ALL DURING ROUND 1, IT WOULD |

| ONLY HAVE THE FLAG ‘CREATED – ROUND 1’. THUS, |

| FOR ANY ONE ROUND, A MEDICINE CAN BE FLAGGED |

| ONLY AS EITHER ‘CREATED’ OR ‘SELECTED’. IF IT |

| IS ROUND 2 AND A MEDICINE THAT WAS CREATED IN |

| ROUND 1 IS SELECTED, IT SHOULD BE FLAGGED AS |

| ‘SELECTED – ROUND 2’. THIS FLAG IS IN ADDITION |

| TO THE ORIGINAL ‘CREATED – ROUND 1’ FLAG. |

| |

| 5. WHEN A MEDICINE FROM A PREVIOUS ROUND IS |

| SELECTED, A NEW EVENT IS CREATED SINCE IT |

| INVOLVES A NEW PURCHASE OF THE MEDICINE. A NEW |

| PURCHASE REQUIRES ASKING CP AND THE PHARMACY. |

| THE REASON FOR INCLUDING ALL OF THE PRESCRIBED |

| MEDICINES ON THE ROSTER IS SIMPLY TO AVOID THE |

| INTERVIEWER HAVING TO TYPE THEM IN AGAIN (IF |

| THE PERSON IS GETTING REFILLS OF THE SAME |

| MEDICINE EVERY ROUND). |

----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------

| ROSTER FILTER: |

| DISPLAY ALL MEDICINES ON PERSON’S ROSTER; |

| NO FILTER. |
