Prescribing
Prescribing wound products via Pecos was introduced in August 2024 across the Highland HSCP area, with the aim of streamlining the process of getting wound care products and reducing the cost to NHS Highland.
There are times when our wound formulary items are not appropriate for certain patients. To ensure the data for non-formulary items is captured, we have created an exceptions form which should be completed for every patient when a prescription or non-contract Pecos order is created.
Once the first exceptions form is completed, it is not necessary to complete a new exceptions form every time a repeat prescription for the same patient and product is required.
