Abstract:

A physician workstation software program for use by medical professionals to generate prescriptions in one or a combination of outputs: print, fax, and/or e-mail.

Each medication within the database has pre-programmed formats that can be selected from a “drop-down” window. The physician workstation software program has the ability to print the selected medication to a specified printer, fax or e-mail address Before the electronic prescription is generated in one of the above file outputs, as many as 12 drug checks are performed to ensure accuracy and intent. The software program stores all information done on the system into an internal database for easy recall.
