e-Prescribing.  Save time, enhance productivity, improve patient safety, manage compliance.

    

e-Prescribing allows a physician, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant to electronically transmit a new prescription or renewal authorization to a community or mail-order pharmacy. With e-Prescribing you can review and respond to pending prescriptions requests, complete refills authorizations in less time, and reduce pharmacy faxes and phone calls.

Automatically check for drug-drug interactions and drug allergies, identify generics and preferred drugs on multiple formularies, provides patient medication lists from all physicians, and enables stricter therapeutic alternative messaging to encourage generic and on-formulary prescribing.

e-Prescribing can prevent medication errors and open up more time to allocate to patient care.  e-Prescribing and digital document storage are two of the most efficient and productive technology tools your practice can implement and get up to speed on quickly.

With Medicare e-Prescribing incentives - 2% in 2009 and 2010 - now is the time to increase efficiencies in this area of your practice.   If you are looking at implementing e-Prescribing download our 1-2-3 "How to Qualify for Medicare's 2% e-Prescribing Bonus".  For a quick estimate of what your providers could earn, or  for an estimate of whether your providers could qualify under the "10% of Medicare charges" requirement, download our "e-Prescribing Estimator" Excel template.

Check the resources available from this page and give us a call at 720-226-9270 if you have any questions or want to implement e-Prescribing in your practice.

If you already have implemented e-Prescribing and want to get the most value out of your investment, download our Top 10 "How to Maximize the Value of e-Prescribing".

Medicare has made recent alterations to the 2010 Electronic Prescribing Incentive Program to ensure e-prescribing is adopted by as many eligible professionals as possible. Review the changes for 2010 e-Prescribing here.
