Easy Business Software in partnership with NDCHealth, a leader in healthcare information services, offers community doctors electronic prescription services FREE to address the high number of written illegible prescriptions. 

Product offering will provide solution for complying to the new Florida Legible Prescription Law, Section 456.42 of the Florida Statutes.

Tampa, Florida. – January 29, 2004 – Easy Business Software, a regional Value Added Reseller (VAR) for NDCHealth’s NDCLytec and NDCMedisoft practice management systems,  today announces they are offering e-prescribe free to area doctors, hopefully educating them on the ease-of-use, and the time savings for sending prescriptions electronically to area pharmacies.    

Easy Business Software, a Tampa based practice management solutions provider, is a partner of  NDCHealth, who has the largest healthcare information network in the US, electronically connecting over 90% of the physicians, pharmacies, and insurance payers. Utilizing this network,  local doctors have the ability to send prescriptions from the doctor's office to the patient's pharmacy,  improving speed of delivery and most importantly, the accuracy of the prescription information. “This valuable service will allow for area doctors to reduce the number of phone calls from the pharmacy, allowing them more time for patient care” states Herald Astorquiza, General Manager of Easy Business Software.  Easy Business Software is a VAR of Medisoft and Lytec, leading practice management systems, which can provide a direct link to participating pharmacies. However, Easy Business Software can still provide the service - regardless of a doctor’s practice management system. 

The new Florida Statute states “a written prescription for a medicinal drug issued by a health care practitioner licensed by law to prescribe such drug must be legibly printed or typed so as to be capable of being understood by the pharmacist filling the prescription”.
