eRx

eRx, or electronic prescribing, is a digital way for healthcare providers to send prescriptions directly to pharmacies using secure computer systems. Instead of writing or calling in a prescription manually, the doctor inputs it electronically, which reduces errors, saves time, and improves accuracy. This system streamlines the medication process, allowing pharmacies to receive and process prescriptions quickly and safely, ensuring patients get the right medication efficiently. eRx enhances communication between doctors and pharmacies, supporting better medication management and patient safety.
