Electronic Prescribing Overview
Safe. EZ e-Script enhances patient safety and reduces pharmacy liability
because common pharmacy transcription errors are eliminated when the prescription's
drug strength and directions are electronically transmitted to the pharmacy system.
Secure. Relying on verbal information from telephone calls for new prescriptions,
refill request approvals and therapeutic changes introduces the risk for fraud,
drug diversion and misinterpretation of the spoken word. Electronic prescriptions
with automatic audit trails of physician-approved changes provide security and a
measure of protection to the pharmacist.
Reliable. With EZ e-Script's ability to connect to major networks such
as
SureScripts, pharmacies are not limited to a single vendor's provider
list.
