How ePrescribing Works

You prescribe in Clinical as you normally would, printing a paper prescription, which now includes an eRx barcode and a QR code. At the same time, the prescription information is sent securely to eRx Script Exchange via MDExchange (to use ePrescribing your practice must be registered with MDExchange). Your patient can then visit a pharmacy of their choice to have their medication dispensed. The pharmacist will scan your patient's prescription barcode and this will retrieve their script information. Your patient's prescription can only be accessed when they present the paper script.
