One-way versus two-way

• SS to Consulting
• Simpler coding, current model
• CP must make corrections directly to SS
• Appending data versus overwriting

• SS to Consulting to SS
• CP clinical input to pharmacy, facility, MD
• Much more complex coding, no established model
• Formulary (dispensing) and clinical (consulting)
  inputs
