What is ePrescribing?
Electronic Prescribing is the new and innovative approach to prescription delivery and authorization. The technology, which is based on 100% online electronic transmission, places the power at the doctor's fingertips, instantly delivering information from the practice to the pharmacist and vice versa. No more phone calls, no more faxes… physicians can now develop and transmit a prescription or refill request at the click of a button.
