- If you can't see patient information in their medication history, the patient information likely does not match what their provincial service plan has on file (e.g., exact name match).
- Only publicly funded medications, narcotics and controlled substances are stored within the provincial drug information system which is the source for medication history.
- As the Ministry of Health adds other non-publicly funded medications to the Drug Information System then they will become available.
Certain information may not be available or accurate in this report, including:
- Items that the patient asked not to be disclosed due to privacy concerns,
- Over-the-counter medications,
- Low-cost prescriptions,
- Prescriptions paid for by the patient, or
- Non-participating sources or errors in insurance claims information
- Information not recorded by the Provincial Drug Information System
The provider should independently verify medication history with the patient.
