Hi,
Sounds like need better documentation for the “Native Data Loads” feature:
http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Code_Types#RXCUI
To explain why this “Native Data Loads” mechanism was built; it was built by Rod to fulfill MU2 requirements(rxcui codes were required for the Medications; they were not needed for the Prescriptions module since the NewCrop module is being used for RX for MU2).
Note that the rxcui codes are NOT used in the fee sheet(the “Hide” column in the code type lists gui means the items are not shown in the fee sheet). They are used to add medications for a patient at:
Medications->Add->Coding
(this then opens up a popup and a drug can be selected)
Note that the rxcui codes are not used in the prescription module(at least not yet).
