How do you access the Medication Administration Record (MAR) in Epic ASAP?

• A. MAR is a separate standalone system outside Epic ASAP
• B. Open the chart’s Medications section and switch to the MAR to review administered doses and times
• C. MAR is accessed via the Billing module
• D. MAR is only available to pharmacists

Answer: (B)

The Medication Administration Record is integrated right in the patient’s chart in Epic ASAP. To view it, open the chart, go to the Medications section, and switch to the MAR. It shows each medication with the dose, route, administration times, and who gave it, giving you a precise record of what has been administered and when. This makes it easy to verify what’s already been given before administering the next dose and to review past administrations for accuracy and reconciliation. It isn’t a separate stand-alone system outside Epic ASAP, and the MAR isn’t accessed through the Billing module. It’s also not exclusive to pharmacists—you’ll typically use it as part of nursing and clinical workflow to document and review medication administration.
