Can compounding pharmacies, LTC pharmacies, and DME companies become enabled for e-prescribing?
In order for a pharmacy (or DME company) to be connected for e-prescribing you must be using a certified pharmacy management system. Please visit http://www.surescripts.com/connect-to-surescripts/pharmacy-software.aspx to see if your system has already completed certification with Surescripts. If you are already using a certified software system please contact your vendor for further information on enabling for e-prescribing. If your software vendor is not yet certified please contact them directly regarding their plans to certify and allow their pharmacy customers to connect for e-prescribing. Note: At this time prescriptions for Medicare Part B drugs cannot be transmitted electronically.
