Scan every script
April 18, 2013
ERX script exchange has released
a flyer urging pharmacies to “scan
every script” for faster dispensing
and fewer errors.
“Using eRx helps ensure your
professional future,” it states, with
3,491 pharmacies already using eRx
every day, some of whom scan 85%
of their scripts.
13,829 doctors are also connected
to eRx, but the flyer warns that
scanning reliability in pharmacy
depends on many factors including
the quality of the doctor’s internet
connection.
“Keep looking for barcodes on
originals...you will see more and
more appearing,” the flyer says.
Online PBS claiming is automated,
with eRx fees reimbursed from
Medicare via PBS Online.
“eRx is a vital part of pharmacy’s
involvement in our eHealth future”
