The ‘ASL’ button on the Dispense Form indicates the ASL status for the selected patient.
Clicking the ASL button will allow you to perform various actions depending on the patient’s ASL status.
ASL Status | Status meaning | Action |
| The patient has not been registered for an ASL. | Click ASL Register to begin the registration process for the patient. |
| The patient has an ASL, but your pharmacy does not have consent to view it. | Click ASL Request Access to request access to the patient’s ASL. |
| The patient has an ASL and your pharmacy has consent to view it. | Click ASL View to view the patient’s ASL. |
| The registration has been submitted but is still waiting for the Primary Contact's explicit approval. | Advise the Primary Contact to respond to the request. |
| The pharmacy has requested access to view the patient’s ASL and is waiting for the Primary Contact's explicit approval. | Advise the Primary Contact to respond to the request.
The request should take up to 2 minutes to get to the Primary Contact. If it does not arrive in that time, you can confirm the mobile/email address with the patient and resend the request.
To resend the consent request, click ASL Consent Pending. |
| Minfos is not able to obtain the patient’s ASL status.
The reason could be one of the following:
| Confirm patient’s DOB, gender, names, Medicare or Repat No. are correct before performing an IHI search again. Ensure you are not in Script Editing Mode. If you are currently only set up with MediSecure, you will need eRx set up to access ASL. Contact Minfos Support to install and set up eRx on your system. |
| Minfos ASL service is unavailable. | Contact Minfos Support. |
