The system can be utilized anywhere there is access to the internet via an Internet Explorer browser. Thus, physicians can instantly have their patients’ medication information wherever they are, whether they are in the office or on call at home.
InfoScriber improves the quality of care and reduces medication errors. And, the electronic creation and transmission of medication orders from the user's desktop computer to any pharmacy via the SureScripts Electronic Prescribing Network™ reduces the possibility of a misread prescription by a pharmacist.
InfoScriber improves access to key clinical information when ordering patient medications, including:
- Potential drug-to-drug/food interactions and drug allergy alerts
- Pregnancy and lactation alerts
- Peer medication dosing patterns
- On-line access to clinical resources
InfoScriber also saves nurse and administrative time by automating reports and documentation that is traditionally managed by staff. The system also provides the organization with a system to electronically input and track medication data. InfoScriber reduces staff phone time and end staff/pharmacy telephone tag, so staff spend less time on pharmacy call-backs for refills, illegible handwriting, re-orders, and prescription changes. The solution may also decrease or eliminate pharmacy-wait time for patients.
Business Benefits:
- Enhances patient safety
- Increases physician productivity
- Reduces pharmacy call backs
- Eliminates the risk of illegible prescriptions
- Includes detailed reporting tools

Prescriber’s Desktop

Medication Profile
The Medication Profile contains crucial patient diagnostic, medical and prescription information. The system provides valuable information on diagnosis and known allergies - all designed to help organizations meet accreditation standards and regulatory requirements.
Reporting
Insight to the “what” and “why” of prescribing is provided within a suite of standard reports included with InfoScriber. These real-time reports assist a physician or organization in efficiently and effectively managing and tracking of critical patient medication history and administration. A wide range of custom reports are also available to help individuals and organizations drill down to a specific layer of detail.
Integrated Solution
Increase the value of your existing investments by taking advantage of the bi-directional interface and communication of data between existing systems. The bi-directional interface moves patient demographic and prescription related information, such as the prescribing physician, date, drug, unit, refills, and other valuable data, between your practice management and clinical systems and InfoScriber on a scheduled basis. Data is communicated between the systems via secure SSL connection to ensure client confidentiality and to main HIPAA privacy and security compliance. |
