WELL Health Adds PrescribeIT to “apps.health” Marketplace and Launches National e-Prescribing Service with Canada Health Infoway

Physicians and health care practitioners using OSCAR Pro are now able to easily create, renew and cancel prescriptions electronically, while improving overall patient care through secure clinician messaging. WELL is offering an end-to-end solution from virtual and on-site patient consultation to electronic prescription, resulting in a better physician and patient experience. By partnering with PrescribeIT^®, health care practitioners, pharmacists and patients can have confidence that the solution ensures patient privacy and security of information.

“We are very excited to launch our e-prescribing service with Infoway’s PrescribeIT^®,” said Hamed Shahbazi, Chairman and CEO of WELL. “Electronic prescriptions will be a key for making virtual visits more efficient and effective, and this integration with the WELL EMR network can help create a better patient experience. I am very proud of our WELL EMR Group who has worked tirelessly to successfully achieve conformance approval from Infoway and our WELL Digital Health Apps team who have made the service available through the apps.health marketplace.”

PrescribeIT^® enhances clinical communications, e-renewals, privacy and security. Prescriptions can now be sent directly from within OSCAR Pro EMR in a secure electronic format to the patient's pharmacy of choice and pharmacies can electronically request prescription renewals from the patient's health care provider. Electronic prescriptions are key for virtual visits as the patient does not have to rely on faxing prescriptions to pharmacies. Furthermore, patient safety is increased due to prevention of data entry errors at the pharmacy and prescription fraud is decreased through direct transmission of the prescription from the prescriber to the pharmacy through the PrescribeIT^® service.

“We are excited about this partnership with WELL to make PrescribeIT^® available to prescribers who use the OSCAR Pro EMR software,” said Jamie Bruce, Executive Vice President, Infoway. “PrescribeIT^® makes prescribing safer, more secure, easier and more convenient.  PrescribeIT^® is also an increasingly important tool in the prescriber’s virtual care toolbox.”
