ePrescribing Network
ePrescribing Network (Electronic prescribing)
is the use of a data entry system to create a prescription, rather than faxing
it or writing it on paper. Automation of the prescribing process has
several potential benefits to different sections of the health care industry,
especially patients, physicians, and pharmaceutical companies.
Electronic prescribing is about more than just generating a prescription
on a computer and printing it out or faxing it to a pharmacy.
E-Prescribing Network must also provide functionality
and workflow flexibility to work not only for physicians but also for the staff
involved in the prescribing process. High prescribers, larger
practices, and enterprise systems require software that is adaptable to their
practice workflow and that draws the practice staff into the prescribing
process. The Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act MIPPA
2008 began on January 1, 2009 to encourage the adoption and utilization of
e-prescribing Network systems. ePrescribing can save time, enhance office
and pharmacy productivity, and improve patient safety and quality of care.
