PRESCRIPTION HISTORY
Cerbo Clinic asks you for permission to obtain your Medication Prescription History.
Medication Prescription History is a list of prescription drugs and medicines that our surgeon, your family doctor, or other providers have prescribed for you.
Medication Prescription History helps healthcare providers treat your symptoms and/ or illnesses properly. Knowing the medicines you take helps in avoiding potentially dangerous drug interactions. This information is especially important during hospitalization for surgery.
It is very important that you and your doctor discuss all your medications in order to ensure that your recorded Medication Prescription History is 100% accurate.
A variety of sources, including pharmacies and health insurers, contribute to the collection of your medication history.
Your Medication Prescription History is securely stored in the practice electronic medical record system (EHR/ EMR) and becomes part of your personal medical record.
Please note that some pharmacies do not make Medication Prescription History information available, and your Medication Prescription History may not include drugs purchased without using your health insurance.
Please note also that over-the-counter drugs, supplements and/ or herbal remedies that you take on your own may not be included. Please make sure to disclose any and all medications and supplements to our surgeon during your visit. Bring your pill and supplement bottles with you to your first appointment so that we can make sure we record your medications correctly.
By signing the consent form on the Patient Forms page you are giving Cerbo Clinic permission to collect your Medication Prescription History. You are giving your pharmacy and your health insurer permission to disclose information about your prescriptions to us. This includes any prescriptions that have been filled at any pharmacy or covered by any health insurance plan.
