# Frequently Asked Questions

## Included/Excluded Actions

### Is the Hold Action included in Discharge Reconciliation? 

The Hold action is **not supported** in the Discharge Medication Reconciliation workflow. The discharge medication list is intended to represent a finalized set of active medications that the patient will continue upon discharge or transfer. Any medications that should not be continued must be explicitly removed from the discharge list rather than marked as held.

### Is the Discontinue Action included in Discharge Reconciliation?

The Discontinue action is **not supported** in the Discharge Medication Reconciliation workflow. Since the discharge list is a new and clean list of medications intended for the patient post-discharge, only active medications should be included. Any medications not intended for continuation must be excluded or deleted from the list altogether.

## Updates to Lists of Medications

### What is the process if new discharge medications are added after the discharge medications summary has already been signed? 

Once the discharge medications summary in the **Discharge Reconciliations** view has been signed, any subsequent additions or modifications to the discharge medication list require the summary to be re-signed. Upon re-signing, the discharge medications are uploaded to **Usual Scripts**, and the provider performing the re-sign is recorded as the **Signed By** for all discharge medications.

### What is the process if updates are made to the MedChart list after it has already been loaded into the Discharge Reconciliation view?

If any medications are added to the list in the **MedChart **view after the discharge process has begun, they must be manually added to the list in the **Discharge Reconciliation **view. Alternatively, the list in the **Discharge Reconciliation **view can be cleared entirely, and the process restarted using the **Load to Discharge **function to pull in the updated MedChart entries.
