Improve the User Interface for prescription order #1692

Open MeghaMoncy opened 1 year ago

MeghaMoncy commented 1 year ago

The issue with the current UI for prescription order in OpenEMR is that it can lead to medication errors due to the lack of clarity in the search results. When a user enters a medication name in the "Search Web API" field, the system displays only one option, which can lead the user to believe that this is the only option available. This lack of clarity can be problematic, as there may be multiple medications with similar names or multiple formulations of the same medication.

Steps to Replicate the Issue:

Screen Shot 2023-05-03 at 1 48 25 PM Screen Shot 2023-05-03 at 12 02 25 PM Screen Shot 2023-05-03 at 12 02 34 PM Screen Shot 2023-05-03 at 12 02 43 PM Screen Shot 2023-05-03 at 12 03 45 PM Screen Shot 2023-05-03 at 12 03 51 PM

This limited visibility of options can lead to unintentional selection of the wrong medication or formulation. Additionally, the lack of a drop-down arrow indicating other available options further exacerbates this issue. Users may not be aware that they can scroll through the search results or that there are other options available beyond the first result. This can lead to frustration and errors as users may be forced to manually search for the medication they need or may simply select the first option without realizing there are other choices available.
