PHYAURA SureScripts certified e-prescribing for OpenEMR Readme Document 1-1-2009 Purpose To enhance OpenEMR and provide a secure method of transmitting prescriptions electronically to pharmacies and meet the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) standards for e-prescribing Problems to Solve To date, there are several issues with OpenEMR and e-prescribing OpenEMR has no effective method of sending prescriptions electronically via SureScripts OpenEMR has no standardized method of maintaining drug databases OpenEMR has no method of checking drug-drug interaction or checking drug-allergy or condition OpenEMR lacks the means of standard communication with patients online regarding prescriptions Solution: Phyaura, LLC has partnered with RelayHealth to create a single sign-on function to RelayHealth e-script service. We have tested this add-on with over 40 providers in the Tampa Bay area for over 4 months. This service is SureScripts certified and currently removes the need for OpenEMR users to print or fax prescriptions. This e-prescribing service meets all of the necessary requirements to receive the 2% Medicare bonus in 2009 and 2010. How does it work? OpenSource code created by PHYAURA has been donated to the OpenEMR community that will enable a link on the left menu bar. There is also a new field in user administration titled RelayHealth ID. The system requirements are as follows: The OpenEMR server will need to have access to the Internet Users will need to incorporate the files from the CVS into the current install The installed OpenEMR server will need to be behind a Static IP; this is required for RelayHealth to authenticate the OpenEMR server The RelayHealth ID will be provided by PHYAURA Once you have signed in you will be able to send prescriptions electronically, renew prescriptions individually and by batch, check formulary status of medications to be prescribed,check drug to drug interactions, and save and upload prescriptions to OpenEMR as a document Future enhancements will enable you to upload patient demographics and allergies Once the OpenEMR user has signed up for the services you will receive a key to sign in to RelayHealth and the RelayHealth ID. We hope to make this integration one step closer to CCHIT certification. If you are interested in seeing demo before signing up call 888-PHYAURA or 888-749-2872 and press 1. Jude A.
