Electronic Prescribing: The Law that Makes Your Practice Work Better

Aug 5, 2020

It’s tough to keep up with all the changes happening in dentistry right now.  One change you don’t want to miss is the new law mandating electronic prescriptions for any controlled substance containing an opioid.  This is now in effect in Virginia:  phone-in, hand-written or faxed prescriptions are no longer accepted for these specific medications.

This new law is also an opportunity to advance the way you do business.  iCoreRx ePrescription software is provided by iCoreConnect, a VDA Services Endorsed Partner.  iCoreRx improves patient care and speeds up your entire prescription process. 

●      ePrescribe ALL medications, including controlled substances.  iCoreRx streamlines all prescription writing into one simple process.  It's cloud based and HIPAA compliant, giving you ePrescribe functionality anywhere there’s internet or a hotspot.  No matter what type of medication you need to prescribe, or where you are, you can provide compliant care with convenience to you and your patient

●      Access the Virginia PMP directly through iCoreRx.  This service integrates with the Virginia PMP database.  Just go to  the PMP module on your iCoreRx dashboard and verify a patient’s prescription history in just a few clicks

●      Use the built-in, rapid-search Lexicomp® drug directory.  Throw out the huge Lexicomp®  book and hefty fee that comes with it.  Instead, use the drug database function to search drug information including dosing options, contraindications, and discontinued meds

●      Work the way you like.  Your collaborative workflow doesn’t need to change.  Your staff can still prepare the prescription for you to review and approve.  Then it’s sent with a click

VDA members receive special discount pricing on iCoreRx.  Include the Electronic Prescribing of Controlled Substances (EPCS) function to comply with the new law.  Add the +PMP function to simplify your mandatory Virginia PMP prescription history check.  Get started by visiting iCoreConnect.com/vda or calling 888.810.7706.
