“…Some studies report that even with the presence of incentives and penalties, several pharmacists have yet to adopt e-prescribing services. 11,12 Several pharmacists seemed to have accepted the e-prescribing system but continued to manage prescriptions using the conventional paper-based method. The main reasons were reported as perceived risk of safety issues and technology mismatches between prescribers and pharmacists.…”

“…In general, according to Jariwala et al, 12 e-prescribers are the health care providers who have integrated the e-prescribing system into their workflows and have used the system in their practices. Non-e-prescribers are categorized into three groups.…”

“…12 Federal incentives motivate providers to adopt and meaningfully use interoperable, certified EHRs that also enable e-prescribing. Compared to older systems, the new commercial EHRs include more robust CDS for e-prescribing to improve the quality and safety of health care delivery.…”

“…46,47 The software can also detect preventable errors by checking for drug-drug interactions and other possible medication errors. 12 The function of adverse drug alerts can assist doctors in checking contradictions when prescribing new medications. 11 Some studies show that e-prescribing systems cause less prescription errors compared to handwritten prescriptions.…”

“…11 More research is required to provide insights into health care providers' decisions to adopt and use e-prescribing in their practices. 12 The literature reflects that little is known about the unintended consequences of e-prescribing technology in community pharmacies and further research is required to understand the true benefits and risks of e-prescribing in the context of community pharmacies and hospitals. 13 Furthermore, e-prescribing errors and potential benefits are not classified in prior reviews on e-prescribing.…”

Association of Electronic Prescribing of Controlled Substances With Opioid Prescribing Rates

et al. 2020

Key Points Question Have states with greater increases in electronic prescribing of controlled substances (EPCS), which is intended to reduce opioid prescribing rates by reducing fraud and facilitating decision support, experienced greater reductions in opioid prescribing? Findings In this longitudinal analysis of Surescripts reports on the use of EPCS and Center of Disease Prevention and Control opioid prescribing rate maps, increasing the use of EPCS by 10 percentage points was associated with 2 more opioid prescriptions per 100 persons and 0.8% more morphine milligram equivalents. Meaning The EPCS has not been associated with reductions in opioid prescribing rates, and achieving benefit may require greater integration and effective presentation of data.

Purpose The purpose of this study was to review legislation, barriers and challenges, and current state of e‐prescribing (eRx) in the United States. Data sources Literature search of CINAHL, MEDLINE, PubMed, and Google Scholar was performed. Conclusions Challenges to eRx implementation and effective use include transcription, workflow issues, alert fatigue, educational and tangible reminders, and eRx of controlled substances. Implications for practice Further research could be best focused on user‐friendly and interactive software improvements for both patient and provider use, bidirectional communication, and workflow studies to improve efficiency of eRx.
