What is Electronic prescribing system (EPS)?
Prescribing is a moment of risk: interactions, allergies and dosing must be right. An EPS checks medication automatically, shows a current formulary and sends the prescription digitally to the pharmacy, preventing errors.
Unlike prescribing by hand, an EPS has to provide real-time medication monitoring, integrate with the pharmacy and the exchange, and use a current formulary.
Key features of an electronic prescribing system (EPS)
- Medication monitoring for interactions and contra-indications
- A current, maintained formulary
- Digital prescription straight to the pharmacy
- Integration with the record and the exchange
- Repeat prescriptions and current medication overview
In healthcare, strict requirements apply to record-keeping, privacy (GDPR) and billing. Good software removes administration, leaving more time for the patient. When comparing, what matters is medication monitoring, the formulary and integrations.
What to look for when choosing an electronic prescribing system (EPS)
- whether it provides reliable, up-to-date medication monitoring
- references from comparable practices or institutions
- integration with the pharmacy and the exchange
- a current formulary
- implementation time, training and vendor support
Prescribing directly affects patient safety. Selecting sharply up front on medication monitoring, the formulary and integrations prevents the system from introducing risk.
