Prescription
Use the Prescription Message screen to notify the doctor when prescribing is not permitted in the patient’s current location.
This screen enforces regulatory compliance and blocks all prescription actions.
It appears automatically during a consultation or when the doctor initiates a prescription.
This screen includes:
- A static message explaining that prescribing is restricted for the patient’s region.
- A single Ok button that acknowledges the restriction.
- No editable fields or additional actions.
- Conditional visibility triggered by compliance checks on the backend.
- A fully blocked prescription workflow until the doctor dismisses the message.
Workflow
- The doctor starts a consultation or initiates a prescription.
- The backend evaluates the patient’s geographic location.
- If the region restricts prescribing, the app displays this screen immediately.
- The doctor selects Ok to confirm.
- The app returns to the active session without enabling prescription actions.
