Massachusetts Medical Society and DrFirst Announce Agreement To Introduce Electronic Prescribing To Massachusetts Physicians
The Massachusetts Medical Society and DrFirst, a provider of electronic prescribing services called Rcopia, are announcing an agreement to provide these prescribing services to Massachusetts physicians.
Rcopia is a SureScripts Certified SolutionTM, which enables physicians to electronically access and conduct two-way communications with more than 50 percent of chain and independent pharmacies across the country that will be connected to SureScripts Messenger" Services by year’s end. The connectivity to pharmacies will not only allow physicians using Rcopia to electronically transmit new prescriptions, but will also enable them to expedite refills electronically, improving the current inefficient process of phoning and faxing. Specifically, in Massachusetts over 65 percent of the retail pharmacies will be connected, trained, and actively using SureScripts Messenger Services by end of 2003.
I first heard about this company and its product from some Handspring people at their NYC release party for the Treo 600.
