Can I work offline using my e-prescribing system?
Some e-prescribing programs allow access offline, which would
enable prescribers to prepare multiple scripts and then transmit
them when they have Internet access again. However, queuing or
'batching' prescriptions before sending them to pharmacies
electronically is not recommended. Sending prescriptions to
pharmacies as soon as possible after they are prepared ensures that
the pharmacy has adequate time to receive the prescriptions before
patients arrive to pick them up.
