Product Specifications
-Step 1: At the point of prescribing, Specialty Patient Enrollment populates the enrollment form with information pulled directly from the electronic health record. The enrollment form can be sent directly to your pharmacy with no intervention needed from prescribers or their staff. Your pharmacy receives the prescription and enrollment form.
-Step 2: Prior authorization required? If the prescriber’s office is relying on you to handle prior authorization, Surescripts includes that information in the enrollment form and ensures you have the data needed to complete the request. Questions for the prescriber? Bidirectional messaging helps you get answers without leaving your workflow or picking up the phone.
-Step 3: Specialty Patient Enrollment gives you all the information required to dispense the medication and automatically populate the patient’s case file. It uses the prescriber order number to link the e-prescription with the enrollment form and confirms prior authorization electronically if needed, making for a streamlined workflow.
