SureScripts - E-Prescribing

About E-Prescribing

E-prescribing supports a shift to a paperless and more informed way for prescribers, payers and pharmacists to make better clinical decisions and improve clinical workflows related to medication management.

  • Reduce Healthcare Costs
  • Improve Patient Safety
  • Increase Efficiency
Benefits:

E-prescribing represents an unprecedented opportunity to reduce healthcare costs and improve the safety and efficiency of a process relied upon by millions of patients every day.
Learn how prescribers, pharmacists, payers, PBMs, technology vendors, hospitals and policymakers are benefitting from e-prescribing.

How E-Prescribing Works:

By using a computer or handheld device with e-prescribing software, prescribers can electronically access patient prescription benefit information and patient medication history, and route prescriptions to a patient's pharmacy of choice.

Chances are you already use a pharmacy management system that has been certified by Surescripts. You simply need to contact your vendor representative and ask them to enable the e-prescribing functionality. You will then be able to receive new prescriptions directly into your computer system from physicians who e-prescribe. You can also send renewal authorization requests to e-prescribing physicians and review their responses on your pharmacy computer.

Please check the list below to see if your pharmacy software has been certified. Then contact your vendor to request the e-prescribing functionality.
