Prescriptions and online pharmacy with CloudRx

adminBlog, News, Software

One of the great new features in the latest release of e-clinic is the integration with CloudRx for digital prescribing.

How does it work?

We’ve updated and improved the prescriptions module in e-clinic 2.5. Products can be added as prescribable items with information such as frequency, strength and quantity.

Create the prescription in the Medical section of the patient’s record and then transform it into an order, which is automatically relayed to CloudRx. Select how the order should be despatched to the patient, whether by Royal Mail or next day courier. The patient receives a separate email about the prescription from CloudRx, with a link to allow them to pay for their pharmacy items.

What is CloudRx?

CloudRx is a new digital prescribing platform for private GPs and consultants. It’s a secure digital prescription system that allows prescribers to create and send an electronic prescription to the CloudRx pharmacy for delivery direct to the patient.

e-clinic’s integration with CloudRx makes the whole process even more simple, and means that details of the description are securely stored in the medical record of the patient. You don’t need to register separately with CloudRx, as this is all done through e-clinic when you create your first prescription.

Here are just some of the benefits of using CloudRx with e-clinic:

  • Simple and quick prescription creation
  • Legal, ethical and paperless prescriptions
  • No follow-up hard copy scripts and trips to the post box
  • Dispensed and dispatched to your patient’s door on the day payment is received
  • Potential cost saving to your patients

You’ll need to be using e-clinic 2.5 in order to use the CloudRx integration. Upgrades are included in the cost of your e-clinic licence, so there’s nothing extra to pay to keep your software up to date. If you want to use CloudRx, we’ll prioritise your upgrade, so just ask!
