I worked @ a medical office x 2 yrs. Never written up for anything, always received great reviews. I was fired b/c I updated my own medical chart. This was something that many of our "small" office did on a regular basis. It was never an issue, well I updated my medical prescriptions and we recently started doing an auto fax prescription, but many glitches and "bugs". When I updated my prescriptions it tried to fax them to a pharmacy. There were 3 total, 2 were antibiotics and one was a Xanax. However, I know you can not ever fax a Rx for Xanax due to control issues. The computer did it on it's own. I have been given the Rx by the dr. in the office, and the dr. admitted this. It was a mistake that they were tried to fax over. Between that and the fact that updating your own chart was not an enforced policy.
