Overview of Using e-Prescribing Software

E-Prescribing Software allows healthcare providers to submit and collect prescriptions digitally either through standalone or through modules that are integrated with electronic health record systems.

The Current State of E-Prescribing Software

Nearly more than 70% of physicians and medical professionals in the developed nations have started using e-prescribing software. Having overcome barriers, e-prescribing has been found to provide the following key advantages to providers and patients:

  • Expedited Medication Reconciliation process: E-Prescribing Software enables physicians to view patients’ medication history; they no longer need to reconcile medication lists manually or commit clinical information such as drug reactions to memory. There are tools for this in the software.

  • Drug errors are prevented: Handwriting errors are eliminated; pharmacists can access patients’ prescription history and avoid dispensing wrong drugs.

  • Automated clinical decision assistance: E-Prescribing removes ambiguity and the need for guesswork related to picking up the drugs with the right strength and in the right form by prompting prescribers to fill out the dose completely. Standard drug dictionaries are available.

  • Allergies, duplicate therapies, and drug interactions are notified instantly: Visibility of patients’ documented allergies and reactions being available, doctors are enabled to avoid negative eventualities.

75Health e-prescribing software is certified; it is well-connected with a large HIPAA-compliant network of pharmacies. This gives providers more patient health information and options related to e-prescribing.

Starting with sending out multiple medications in single order through easy prescription refills, the cloud-based 75Health e-prescribing software can be customized according to specific practice use.
