Still Using a Fax for Prescriptions? You May as Well be Using Messenger Pigeons

Still Using a Fax for Prescriptions? You May as Well be Using Messenger Pigeons

Reduce Administrative Burden with True e-Prescribing

Tired of relying on an ancient, unreliable technology? Now you can trade in your fax machine for e-prescribing, enabling you to free up time spent on administrative tasks, and put more time into your practice.

PrescribeIT®, Canada’s national not-for-profit e-prescribing service, enables prescribers to electronically transmit prescriptions directly from their electronic medical record (EMR) to a pharmacy’s management system. With PrescribeIT®, you can:

  • Replace fax and phone calls with clinical communications,
  • Receive pharmacy-initiated renewal requests directly into your EMR, linking the renewal to an existing medication in a patient chart
  • Receive dispense notifications directly into a patient chart, giving you insight into a patient’s medication adherence

PrescribeIT® is funded by the federal government and available at no cost to physicians across Canada, including Ontario, New Brunswick and Alberta*.

*Alberta accepts use of PrescribeIT® for TPP prescriptions. When PrescribeIT® is used, the secure Alberta TPP prescription form and a prescriber’s ‘wet’ signature (or initials) are not required.”
