I am sure there will be someone out there who can help me find the answer to this question...
We were told today at work that EVERYTHING we fax must have a cover sheet on it. This is suppose to include information faxed internally too. Our physician order sheets are carbon-less copies that we pull the copy off and fax the med orders to our pharmacy. Now we are told that even those papers will have to have a cover sheet. We fax AT least 100 times to pharmacy in 12 hour shift....sure seems like an awful lot of paper waste. I totally understand the need to have cover sheets when we are faxing something outside of our facility, but internally? Please, someone tell me that our administration is going overboard with this. They have a tendency to do that....Thanks...
