Allscripts TouchChart Rx+ helps clinicians increase patient safety, reduce pharmacy callbacks, and improve office efficiency. With more than three billion prescriptions written per year, prescribing is one of the largest, paper-based processes in our nation. Not surprisingly, it is also one of the most inefficient. With approximately a third of all prescriptions generating a callback from a pharmacy, physicians and their staff spend hours of time each week pulling charts and verifying information. However, more importantly, there are consistently issues with the safety of the prescribing process as medication errors result in thousands of deaths annually.
