VDA Services is pleased to announce the endorsement of iCoreRx, empowered ePrescribing from iCoreConnect.  iCoreRx enables ePrescribing for all medications, including controlled substances and provides one-step, real-time access to the Virginia Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP).

This is important for our members:  Beginning this summer, on July 1, the law mandates the use of only electronic prescriptions for all controlled substances in Virginia (§ 54.1-3408.02).

In order to help VDA members comply with this new regulation, the VDA Services Board of Directors conducted a thorough review of the ePrescribing marketplace.  The Board is confident in its selection of iCoreRx as a complete and HIPAA-compliant ePrescription tool. This one-stop solution provides auto-filling of patient information, contra-indications, patient drug history, a drug database directory and more.  iCoreRx is cloud-based, so providers have the flexibility to ePrescribe from anywhere at any time.

Practitioners that prescribe Schedule II-IV drugs, you need to access the PMP to legally prescribe those controlled substances.  iCoreRx with the added PMP tool streamlines your prescription check process.  It interfaces with practice management systems, bringing all your patient’s data to a single screen for easy access.  Dr. Frank Iuorno, VDA President-Elect, noted “iCoreRx provides a solution for the upcoming mandatory ePrescribe regulation that’s simple to implement no matter what digital record system you use!”

iCoreConnect President and CEO Robert McDermott explains, “iCoreRx, when combined with the added PMP functionality, simplifies mandatory prescription checks through a single screen interface with a provider’s practice management system.  It eliminates manual data entry and displays patient information alongside the PMP data.” 

Dr. Steve Radcliffe, President of the VDA Services Board of Directors noted, “VDA Services has worked with iCoreConnect since 2015 when the Board endorsed the company’s HIPAA-compliant email and referral network, iCoreExchange.  The company is great to work with and has helped many VDA members.  I am pleased we are able to expand our partnership to include ePrescribing through iCoreRx.”  In addition to bringing members a complete ePrescription solution, VDA Services worked to secure an exclusive member benefit on pricing.  VDA members save $30/month on iCoreRx and $16/month on the PMP integration tool.  That equates to up to $552/year in savings for VDA Members – more than annual VDA dues.

Be sure your practice is prepared for Virginia’s new ePrescribing regulation.  To learn more about iCoreRx or to schedule a free demo, contact the iCoreRx team at 888-810-7706 or visit them online at www.icoreconnect.com/rx.
