In states where electronic prescribing of controlled substances (EPCS) is required, Dentrix Ascend ePrescribe enables providers to comply with the requirement. Beyond compliance, however, providers can save their patients time and make filling any prescription easier by sending prescriptions directly to the patient’s preferred pharmacy. ePrescribe eliminates issues that can arise with handwritten prescriptions. It automatically checks for drug-to-drug interactions and adverse effects from a prescribed drug and dosage, and it provides a record of what is prescribed, which can reduce inappropriate dosing and potential abuse.
