ScriptRx(R), Inc., a national provider of interactive healthcare systems, has announced the immediate availability of a physician-friendly touchscreen computer system, incorporating a fingerprint scanner and laser printer that delivers Emergency Department physicians fast, secure, computerized prescription writing, discharge instructions, and instant access to reference materials. The systems are offered FREE to applying hospitals nationwide and are expected to dramatically reduce life-threatening prescription and discharge instruction errors caused by illegible or confusing handwriting. ScriptRx systems have been deployed in cities nationwide including New Orleans, Boston, New York City, Dallas, Charlotte, Ft. Lauderdale and West Palm Beach.

“ScriptRx is a team of professionals coming from emergency departments, hospital administration, computer technology and business domains. We are committed to utilizing advanced computer technology and the instant communication benefits of the Internet to improve safety and the efficiency of healthcare in emergency departments nationwide,” stated Doug Wheeler, President and CEO of ScriptRx.

Because the cost of the ScriptRx systems can be prohibitive for many emergency departments, ScriptRx provides the systems free to all qualifying hospitals. The company has developed a unique business model that allows pharmaceutical and other companies predominantly from the medical community to sponsor appropriate informational sections or “screens,” which are then viewed by prescribing physicians at the point of care.

According to Dr. James Moises, Director of Emergency Medicine at Charity LSU, one of the nation’s largest and highly trafficked Emergency Departments, “The ScriptRx units are great because the touch screen is easy to work with and it really speeds up the process of writing prescriptions and discharge instructions. Patients are impressed when we hand them the printed prescription with their discharge orders.”
