ePrescribing Benefits for Patients


ePrescribing improves healthcare quality, safety and affordability for patients by:

  • Having lower out-of-pocket costs when prescribers respond to ePrescribing formulary messages
  • Saving time at the pharmacy by having prescriptions sent prior to patient arrival, and reducing the potential for two trips because prescribers more frequently adhere to health plan requirements
  • Reducing potential for adverse drug events caused by drug-drug or drug-allergy interactions, mistaken handwriting, or incorrect dosage
  • Increasing compliance with prescribed treatment because care is cost-effective and convenient
