Gwinnett Drugs proudly works with healthcare facilities to provide the most accurate and up to date information to their patients. E-Prescribing is an error-free process that allows prescriptions to be sent directly to our pharmacy from the prescriber.
The inclusion of electronic prescribing in the Medicare Modernization Act (MMA) of 2003 gave momentum to the movement, and the July 2006 Institute of Medicine report on the role of e-prescribing in reducing medication errors received widespread publicity, helping to build awareness of e-prescribing’s role in enhancing patient safety. Adopting the standards to facilitate e-prescribing is one of the key action items in the government’s plan to expedite the adoption of electronic medical records and build a national electronic health information Infrastructure in the United States.
Thanks to the breakthrough in the medical world, doctors can now send prescriptions electronically, making a more seamless process for both patients and healthcare professionals.
For more information or questions about E-Prescriptions, please call (470) 594-4046 and speak with our pharmacist.
