Overview of the Dispensing Process
When batches are ready to be dispensed, the
ARxIUM computer sends information to the FastPak
EXP
telling it which medications to dispense and
where to find them. These medications can be in a
canister or UTC (universal tablet counter) tray, or
they may be “exception” medications that are not in
the FastPak
EXP, but for which an empty bag is
created.
The process for dispensing batches containing tray
medications differs slightly from the process for
Autolink:
Batches that have come from the pharmacy
information system and have either been processed
by the Autolink module or TCP Service
Manual:
Batches that have been built in the manual module
Repack:
Batches containing medications from canisters that
have been built in the repack module

Batches containing skipped medication
