With Agastha your practice can send prescriptions directly to the computer at the pharmacy, eliminating paper, phone and fax from the process. This makes getting patients the medications they need a safer and more efficient process by reducing the risk of medication errors caused by misinterpreted handwriting, illegible faxes and keystroke errors.

When using Agastha’s e-Prescription software pharmacies can send refill authorization requests directly and securely to practice computers as an alternative to time consuming phone calls and faxes. Physicians or authorized staff can then return approvals or denials with a few mouse clicks at their convenience, in seconds, leaving more opportunity for patient care or otherreimbursable activity.

E-Prescriptions are sent electronically through a private, secure, and closed network – the Pharmacy Health Information Exchange, operated by SureScripts – so your prescription information is not sent over the open internet or as an email. E-Prescriptions are computer generated, fast, convenient and legible, meeting all the HIPPA requirements of sharing information only for the purpose of providing clinical care.

More than 70% of community pharmacies in the United States accept e-Prescriptions, so start reducing the estimated 1.5 million injuries attributed to drug-related errors and the more than 150 million telephone calls made annually to clarify hand-written prescriptions.
