The option Manually Change Copay Exemption (Hardships) can be used to update and correct entries by creating a new exemption.

This file will hold the time sensitive data that is used to determine if a patient can be exluded from any type of billing for a period of time. The initial use of this file is for storing the time sensitive data related to whether or not a patient is exempt from pharmacy copay requirement due to income below the pension level. The file then maintains the audit trail of changes to exemptions and historical data about exemptions. The data in this file should be retained for approximately the current calendar year and the past calendar year. The ability to purge data in this file will be added at a future time.
