How to input a dispense with PRSI or a Medical Card

Set Up:

Lists/Accessories add 2 rows. One for Medical Card Eye Exam and one for PRSI Eye Exam (make sure both stock numbers have ST in brackets at the end eg PRSI Eye Exam (ST) and the retail price is zero)

Lists/Invoiced List add Medical Card and PRSI

Dispensing

Input the dispense in the same way as a private dispense. If an eye exam is included, then when you start the dispense, click on “exam” and choose Medical Card or PRSI Exam

Having entered all the information as you would with a private dispense you then do as follows:

• Choose the medical code for the exam (if applicable) from the dropdown list and then choose the code for the spectacles from the dropdown list.

• Choose either PRSI or Medical Card from the “owed by” area (on the left of the dispense screen). That will reduce the sale by the PRSI/Medical Card value.

• If you want to view the codes used then you can click on the “Codes Used” button.

When you get paid

• You can keep track of outstanding payments by going into “Invoiced” from the Main menu.
• Go to Main Menu and click on the Invoiced button.
• Click on “Unpaid”.
• Tick the ones that you have been paid for and insert the date that you were paid.
