Reprinting CMS (Serial Prescribing) GP10 - Scotland only

You can reprint a Chronic Medication Service (CMS) GP10 to provide your patient with an identical copy of a CMS prescription, for example, if the previous copy jammed in the printer.

Please note the following when reprinting a prescription:

  • You cannot reprint the prescription if the selected prescriber in Prescription Manager differs from the original signer of the prescription.
  • The reprint prints with the same barcode which begins with a ‘K’.
  • If the number of pages used differs from the original, the prescription does not reprint.

To reprint an item:

  1. From Consultation Manager, press the F9 key on your keyboard.
  2. The Prescription Manager screen displays, select the Recent tab.
  3. Tick the items to reprint.
  4. Select Reprint :

  5. Select a Prescription Reprint Reason and select OK.

A copy of the CMS GP10 prints, no additional CMS message is sent.

Note - If a single item needs reprinting, the GP10 on which it was originally printed is reprinted in its entirety.
