Benefits
Mobility
With MedRunner, your practice is wherever you are. Cloud Rx™ Platform is optimized, giving you the freedom to use your preferred method of e-prescribing: desktop computer, laptop, blackberry, iphone, ipad, android.
Furthermore, Cloud Rx™ is a transparent system, meaning healthcare practitioners are able to access all patients in the Cloud Rx™ Platform. This capability ensures that all physicians, emergency services (ambulance), and hospitals are instantly informed on a patient’s medical background in the case of an emergency or situation where the patient’s family doctor is not available. These situation arise more often than not, particularly in the case of: emergency situations, after-hours clinics, while the patient is traveling, relocated to a new city, or has been referred to another physician.
Handwriting
One of the main causes for prescribing and dispensing errors is illegible handwriting. With the Cloud Rx™ Platform, creating a script is consistent, complete, clear and easy to read, and takes seconds – no pen required.
Saves Time
If there’s one thing that we hear on a daily basis from physicians, administration staff, assistants, and pharmacists it’s “I don’t have time!”. With physicians seeing back-to-back patients and pharmacies filling hundreds of prescriptions per day, it’s no surprise that any change to normal workflows is simply an inconvenience. This is one of the major reasons why the Cloud Rx™ Platform; came into existence – our early adopter clinicians say that it’s not just about “freeing up more time” for themselves, but it’s to create opportunity for physicians and pharmacies to see more patients, fill more prescriptions, catch up on work, and to just get more done in a day!
Cloud Rx™ allows a physician and pharmacist to make confident decisions with little to no “double-doctoring” via call-backs, faxing back and forth, manual interaction checking, and constant prescription evaluations (no more analyzing zip-lock bags filled with prescriptions!). These daily challenges were overcome by providing real-time communication between physician and pharmacist, interaction checks upon prescribing, electronic special authorization forms, and complete accessibility and transparency to a patient’s prescription history.
User Built
The Cloud Rx™ Platform would not exist if it wasn’t for the guidance and feedback from our users. Every registered Cloud Rx™ physician has the option to work along side our development team to help improve and grow the application. If any physician wants to be involved in the development process by providing feedback, suggestions, experience, we are all ears. This is our grassroots approach to building a worthwhile product.
For general announcements, please check out our twitter and Media pages.
Interoperable
If you already have an Electronic Management System (EMR) you can still use the Cloud Rx™ connection capabilities. Cloud Rx™ is an open platform, meaning we can integrate our capabilities into any existing physician or pharmacy system. There are many ways to approach this, so to find out more please contact us.
Reduce Fraud
Cloud Rx™ ensures that a patient never has to touch a paper prescription again.
“Prescription shopping” and drug abuse is now at an epidemic level according to government and other industry authorities. Oxycontin Task Forces are trying to control, educate, and track opioid usage and sales as a preventative measure for prescription abuse.
Cloud Rx™ tracks prescriptions from the start – right from who, when, where, how, and why a certain medication or narcotic was prescribed. This in turn allows Cloud Rx™ physicians and pharmacists to track the history of these drugs – eliminating the risk of prescription fraud and “prescription shopping” from pharmacy to pharmacy.
