OA Systems Completes SureScripts Certification for Electronic Prescribing Connectivity Between Physicians and Pharmacies

With today s announcement, OA Systems becomes a part of a growing number of healthcare technology vendors to be certified by SureScripts.

"We are excited to be part of the SureScripts Electronic Prescribing Network, which is the nation's largest network provider of electronic prescribing services" said Omar Ahmed, President and CEO of OA Systems. "This certification allows us to be connected with over 90 percent of the pharmacies in the United States. Doctors can use RxCure® to send electronic prescriptions to pharmacies nationwide."

The SureScripts certification enables physicians to communicate with pharmacies using a two-way electronic connection. As a result, physicians will receive refill requests on their computers via the SureScripts Electronic Prescribing Network rather than by fax or by phone and be able to send new prescriptions and renewal authorizations with the click of a button -- thus streamlining the refill and renewal process.

"RxCure® will reduce pharmacy callbacks by eliminating rejections due to illegibility, drug incompatibility, and common dosage errors. Not only is RxCure® easy to use but it will also improve patient safety and increase efficiency for physicians and pharmacists," stated Ahmed.
