hbs e-prescribing for docutrack customers


Carson City, NV—June 12, 2008 – Health Business Systems, an SXC Company, has now made e-prescribing available to its customers utilizing Integra, Inc.’s workflow system, DocuTrack. Those using the HBS Pharmacy Management System can now e-mail electronic orders into DocuTrack. Furthermore, any document or report printable from the HBS system can be sent to DocuTrack allowing these to be entered into a workflow of the pharmacy’s choosing.
E-prescribing is a prescriber's ability to electronically send an accurate, error-free and understandable prescription directly to a pharmacy from the point-of-care. This is done through an automated data-entry process utilizing e-prescribing software and a transmission network which links to participating pharmacies. This functionality can be an important element in improving the safety and quality of patient care.
“This is a very high demand feature among many of our clients and we are pleased HBS took the necessary steps towards including it their DocuTrack interactions,” said Louie Foster, Integra’s Director of Product Development. “Our HBS customers will now have the opportunity to greatly benefit from this advancement.”
“HBS is committed to patient safety and by incorporating electronic prescribing along with DocuTrack we are one step closer to an error free pharmacy,” said Steven Hess, HBS Vice President, Pharmacy Operations. “HBS has also enhanced its work flow capabilities allowing pharmacists to check prescriptions more frequently using imaging of tablets along with scanners, furthering our commitment to checks and balances.”
If you are a DocuTrack/HBS customer looking to utilize this capability you will need to contact your HBS representative or visit their Web site at www.sxc.com.
