Using Electronic Prescriptions for Dentrix Users

From The Dentrix Office Manager Blog:

Using Electronic Prescriptions: In Florida, and as of January 1, 2020, a new law became effective that requires prescribing doctors to send all prescriptions electronically. Arizona, Iowa, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and Rhode Island also have mandates that took effect January 1, 2020; and in September 2018, California passed a law that requires electronic prescribing for all medications.

Check the laws for your state. Is your practice required by law to send prescriptions electronically? It may be time to think about how your practice is going to implement this requirement into your daily workflow. You will need to use a service to electronically submit prescriptions to pharmacies. I recommend using Henry Schein One ePrescribe, which allows you to send electronic prescriptions directly through Dentrix.
