E-Prescribing for Behavioral Health
Where prescribing happens
Ease Health offers e-prescribing, electronic prescribing of controlled substances (EPCS), and prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) checks through DrFirst Rcopia. Prescribers open DrFirst from the Ease patient chart and write the prescription in Rcopia.
Follow the handoff from the chart to DrFirst
When a prescriber opens DrFirst from the Ease chart, Ease passes patient demographics, medications, allergies, and problems to Rcopia. The clinician documents the visit in the Ease encounter.
- Open the patient’s Medications tab. Use a sample chart and find the medication and allergy information before opening prescribing.
- Choose DrFirst e-Prescribe. Show which patient details reach Rcopia from the chart.
- Review prescribing in Rcopia. Ask the prescriber to show where EPCS and the PDMP check are available for their account. Use a sample prescription to see where they review it.
- Open the encounter note in Ease. Show where the clinician documents the visit and how the care team finds the note.
Check EPCS and PDMP in your demo
EPCS covers electronic prescribing of controlled substances. A PDMP check gives the prescriber access to available prescription history through the prescribing workflow. Ask the vendor to show both in the demo and point out which account setup and state connections your practice uses. See DrFirst’s description of EPCS and PDMP access.
Use the psychiatry EHR buyer guide to test prescribing, encounter documentation, and billing review together.
