Crow Family Medicine Clinic Increases Office Efficiency by Implementing Mednet System's E Prescribing Application

Family practice saved office, patient and pharmacy time by using Mednet's E Prescribing Application.

Webster, MA and Duncan, OK (PRWEB) March 28, 2007 -- Dr. Thomas Crow, head of Crow Family Medicine Clinic in Duncan, Oklahoma improved office prescription management by enlisting the use of Mednet System's E Prescribing Application. After successfully completing a quick training in October of last year. Dr. Crow and office manager Jean Crow immediately notice the improvements using E Prescribing as opposed to handwritten prescriptions.

According to Dr. Crow, "E Prescribing is so much more convenient and efficient for everyone involved. Prescriptions can be entered and sent to the pharmacy of the patients' choice with a few clicks of the mouse before the patient leaves the office. I don't have to "fish" through patient charts for drug allergies and alerts - the system automatically pulls them up with the patient along with all past and current prescription information. This eliminates drug compatibility errors." "Pharmacy errors due to misread handwriting are also a thing of the past with E Prescribing." said Dr. Crow.

Using Mednet's E Prescribing Application was also a positive experience for Jean Crow, office manager of Crow Family Medicine. She had the following things to say: "E Prescribing saves me a lot of time in the office that was formerly spent on paper prescriptions and refill requests. With E Prescribing refill requests are handled much more quickly which lowers the volume of repeated patient prescription calls to the office." "E Prescribing also provides a valuable service to the patient as well as the doctor and staff. Patients prescriptions can be sent to their pharmacies while they are still in the office which allows more time for the pharmacy to fill the prescription before the patient arrives at the pharmacy. In most cases the patients prescriptions are waiting for them when they get to the pharmacy." said Jean Crow.

"Dr. Crow's practice was able to use our e-prescribing application over the internet with no need to buy any expensive hardware or software. This is one more success story that demonstrates our ability to deliver EMR and e-Prescribing solutions to physicians in a cost effective manner", said Niraj Jetly, CEO, Mednet System.
