In May 2024, NormanMD, Austin Regional Clinic's (ARC's) virtual urgent care telemedicine service, implemented an innovative ePrescription (e-Rx) solution called Photon. Photon recently published an article on their blog reflecting how NormanMD's improved workflow for pharmacy prescriptions has helped both patients and clinicians.
How Photon's ePrescribe tool has improved the NormanMD workflow
Photon's ePrescribe tool is fully integrated into NormanMD, making it easier for clinicians to pull accurate patient information quickly and giving patients the ability to choose their pharmacy and time for pickup. All prescription information is available digitally for both clinicians and patients including medication, dosage, and instructions.
The benefits for patients and clinicians include:
- Quicker prescriber/prescription workflow process for clinicians, cutting the task of e-prescribing down to 10 seconds per patient.
- Ease in pharmacy selection and tracking prescriptions through after-hours Rx fulfillment.
- Fewer follow-up visits booked to resolve Rx issues.
