E-Prescribing Software

An e-Prescribing System to Support Your Clinic’s Needs

ClinicTracker partners with DrFirst to deliver a fully-integrated ePrescribing system for behavioral healthcare providers. This solution offers a sophisticated digital platform for writing and tracking electronic prescriptions for legend and schedule II-V drugs. With 49 states and the District of Columbia accepting ePrescriptions for controlled substances, our prescribers can take advantage of this faster and more secure approach to managing prescriptions electronically.

A behavioral health provider writes a patient prescription using electronic prescription software that provides comprehensive access to a patient’s prescription history
While minimizing prescription errors and ensuring they get the right medication, electronic transmission of prescriptions saves a patient costs at the pharmacy

Enhances Patient Safety & Improves Their Overall Experience

  • Access to medication history and patient data that reduces the potential for adverse drug events caused by drug-drug/drug-allergy interactions
  • Eliminate errors in paper prescriptions due to poor or misread handwriting that can impact patient care
  • Faster, more efficient patient notification in the event of an FDA safety alert
  • Lower out-of-pocket costs because providers can identify medications with lower co-payments (an average savings of $20-25 per prescription)
  • Less time spent waiting at the pharmacy since prescriptions are sent ahead
  • Increased treatment compliance because of more cost-effective and convenient care

Improves Productivity for Your Clinic’s Team

  • Online availability anytime, anywhere
  • Real-time patient medication lists pulled from three Pharmacy Benefit Management Systems
  • Faster, one-click, multi-script prescription renewal process (case studies suggest a savings of 1-2 hours/day for office staff)
  • Fewer pharmacy call backs
  • Less time spent with pharmacy questions and refill requests
  • Fully-integrated solution means that medications entered in ClinicTracker are available for interaction checking
  • Prescriptions written in DrFirst are available for import into ClinicTracker Progress Notes
  • Eliminates phone calls from patients requesting alternative covered medication, mail order submission, or prior authorization
With an e-Prescribing workflow, staff within health systems can spend less time dealing with pharmacy call backs and questions
Electronic prescribing for controlled substances helps improve a patient's adherence to prescription orders

e-Prescribing of Controlled Substances (EPCS)

You can extend ClinicTracker’s ePrescribing module with a feature called EPCS (Electronic Prescribing of Controlled Substances) Gold. With EPCS Gold (powered by DrFirst), you can seamlessly send controlled substance prescriptions to retail or mail order pharmacies within the same workflow you use to prescribe legend drugs. It makes prescribing controlled substances more efficient, advances patient medication adherence, and increases convenience for your patients. After an initial credentialing and identity-proofing process (mandated by the DEA), prescribers can begin ePrescribing Schedule II-V drugs. To avoid any confusion and eliminate guesswork by providers, EPCS Gold automatically detects which substances can be sent electronically.

The Benefits of EPCS Gold

With EPCS Gold, you can expect high-caliber security:

  • EPCS Gold is the first and foremost Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA)- and Surescripts-certified solution for e-prescribing
  • Legal since 2010 at the Federal level, controlled substance e-prescribing is also approved in 49 U.S. States and the District of Columbia, and more than 40% of pharmacies nationwide accept controlled substance e-prescriptions (Read More).
  • DEA mandated Two-Factor Authentication Protocol for all provider registrations (key-chain or soft-token)
  • Provider authentication through third-party identity proofing process

With this feature, you can also:

  • Prevent prescription drug abuse
  • Avoid patients who are doctor shopping
  • Reduce fraud and abuse – no paper prescription pads to be stolen, altered, or forged
  • Be audit-ready with management reports
