What are the Top Benefits of E-Prescribing Software?

What is E-Prescribing? 

Nearly gone are the days of writing prescriptions by hand. E-prescription is now the preferred method of most pharmacists and physicians as it allows them to quickly and easily prescribe medication through a third-party system that logs the prescription from the physician and passes it on to the pharmacy.



E-prescribing solves a number of problems that inherently come with the use of hand-written prescriptions such as human error as well as provides the added benefits of technology like efficiency and convenience.

Key Benefits Thanks to E-Prescribing Software Development and systems like eRx Paperless Solutions we see the following benefits: 

Pharmacist error is reduced as prescription instructions are less likely to be misinterpreted than if they were handwritten.



Medication management systems can track refills and let physicians know whether or not patients have been picking up their medication on time.



Automated systems can detect potential adverse reactions from prescription or treatment combinations which averts potential hospital readmissions.



These systems save time and money and can be expected to save even more money as improvements are made and well into the future.

Importance of E-Prescription Software for Telemedicine 

On top of all these benefits is the most important one, patient safety. Eprescription software is the safest way to handle prescriptions.

COVID-19 Impact 

With the Pandemic sending everyone home to shelter in place, the market for telemedicine has seen tremendous growth and with it has come an increased demand for automated solutions particularly in the healthcare market.



If it weren't for having these solutions readily available before the pandemic hit, doctors and pharmacies would've been inundated even greater by the sudden extreme hike in healthcare visits.

According to Dept. of Health 

According to the Department of Health and Human Services, 43.5% of Medicare primary care visits took place via telemedicine in 2020. This is a huge spike compared to a meager .1% of visits in the month of February prior to the majority of states and cities announcing a lockdown.



Luckily, e-prescription software development is ahead of the game and is able to handle the increased number of e-prescriptions already.

What are the E-Prescribing trends and Market Forecast? 

Pharmacies and clinicians continue to adopt e-prescribing systems through the use of third-party eRx implementation. These systems are on par to work with current government initiatives and programs regarding controlled substances.

E-Prescription Market 

The size of the e-prescription market is expected to reach a market cap of 3.3 billion USD by 2025 after hitting a cap of 1.2 billion USD for the year 2020. The Asian Pacific region of the market is expected to be growing the fastest. Within that region, China's market for e-prescribing is projected to grow the fastest out of the countries in that region.

Final Thoughts 

Accelerated growth in e-prescribing has been seen and is expected to continue. This opens the door for mobile applications to streamline the patient user-end of the process and has a number of pharmacies and clinics alike looking for custom software solutions.
