The calendar date on which the dispense record was first entered into the pharmacy or PBM system, which may differ from the actual dispense date. Used for audit trail documentation, data lineage tracking, and identifying workflow processing timelines within pharmacy operations.

The timestamp recording when the dispense record was first created in the pharmacy management or PBM system. Combined with the created date to provide precise audit trail documentation, support workflow analysis, and identify processing sequence in high-volume pharmacy dispensing environments.

The kidney function marker for a medication distribution. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for dispense management and reporting.

The calendar date on which a medication was dispensed to the patient at the pharmacy. Serves as the primary date field in pharmacy claims adjudication, used to determine benefit eligibility, apply plan year accumulators, measure days supply coverage, and analyze medication adherence.

The combined date and time at which a medication dispense event occurred in the pharmacy system. Provides precise sequencing of dispense transactions, supports 24-hour pharmacy operations reporting, and enables accurate chronological ordering of clinical and claims events in integrated health data systems.

The Drug Enforcement Administration registration number of the prescribing clinician or dispensing pharmacy associated with a controlled substance dispense. Required by federal law for Schedule II-V medications and used in pharmacy claims to validate prescriber authorization and support controlled substance compliance monitoring.

The date of death for a medication distribution. Used to track temporal information related to dispense death date. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for dispense management and reporting.

The dollar amount applied to a member's pharmacy deductible for a specific dispense event before plan benefits begin paying. Captured in pharmacy claims adjudication to track accumulation toward the annual deductible threshold and calculate remaining member cost-sharing obligations under the pharmacy benefit plan.

The date on which a dispense record was logically removed or voided within the pharmacy or PBM system, typically due to a reversal, data correction, or duplicate claim. Used in audit trail tracking and data quality processes to maintain an accurate historical record of dispensing activity changes.

Flags whether a pharmacy dispense record has been voided or removed from the active dispense history. Used in pharmacy claims and medication management systems to identify cancelled or erroneous dispense transactions that should be excluded from utilization reporting and patient medication histories.

Human-readable text describing a pharmacy dispense event, typically including drug name, strength, dosage form, and quantity dispensed. Used in pharmacy benefit management systems and medication reconciliation workflows to present dispense records in a clinically meaningful format for pharmacists and clinicians.

Granular transaction-level data captured at the point of pharmacy dispensing, including drug NDC code, dispense quantity, days supply, prescriber NPI, and dispensing pharmacy. Supports pharmacy claims adjudication, medication therapy management, and clinical decision support in PBM and EHR environments.

The expected date by which a prescription should be dispensed or picked up by the patient, calculated from the prescribing date and refill schedule. Used in pharmacy workflow systems to manage prescription queues, proactive refill programs, and medication adherence outreach for chronic condition management.

The total days supply authorized and dispensed for a prescribed medication, representing how long the dispensed quantity should last at the prescribed dosing regimen. Critical in pharmacy claims processing for calculating refill eligibility dates, medication possession ratios, and adherence metrics in PBM analytics.

The date on which a pharmacy dispense transaction becomes active and the medication is available for patient use, typically aligned with the pickup or delivery date. Used in pharmacy benefit management to determine coverage applicability, coordinate benefits, and calculate days supply overlap between refills.

The electronic mail address associated with a pharmacy dispense record, used to contact the patient or prescriber regarding prescription status, ready notifications, or clinical follow-up. Supports digital communication workflows in pharmacy management systems and automated patient engagement platforms.

Flags a pharmacy dispense as an emergency fill, where a partial or full quantity is dispensed without a valid prescription in urgent clinical situations as permitted by state pharmacy regulations. Used in pharmacy management systems to track emergency dispense events for regulatory compliance and claims documentation.

The date on which a dispensed medication supply is expected to be exhausted based on the prescribed days supply and dispense date. Used in pharmacy benefit management and care management systems to calculate refill windows, identify gaps in therapy, and trigger medication adherence interventions for chronic disease patients.

The timestamp marking the completion of a pharmacy dispense transaction, capturing when the medication was fully processed and released for patient pickup or delivery. Used in pharmacy operations systems to measure dispense cycle times, workflow efficiency, and compliance with regulatory dispensing time requirements.

Indicates whether a patient was actively enrolled in a qualifying health plan or pharmacy benefit program at the time of a medication dispense. Used in pharmacy claims adjudication and PBM reporting to validate coverage eligibility, coordinate benefits, and flag dispenses occurring outside active enrollment periods.
