Dont do it

its been a week since i out all my important medical info in this app and i'm still getting a message that im unable to prescribe due to some verification problem. Contacted support 3 times, 2 times rapid response but no resolution. Dont put your sensitive info into this app!

Can’t prescribe narcotics

I got this app to write narcotic prescriptions that I can’t call in to the pharmacy. This doesn’t seem to have the ability to do that so I see no use for it. I can have my front desk just call in a regular Rx and not have to input all the patient info.

Works great

Love this eprescribe app. Free and easy to use. 4 stars because it would be nice to prescribe multiple Rx at once and sign and send verse sign and send after every medication.

Poor Ophthalmology coverage

Good for regular Rx but BAD for the various eye drops… won’t do ointments or any newer meds. Disappointing …

ID verification not working

I’ve been trying to verify my identity but whenever I click the link to do so, it just glitches and restarts. I just updated it and it still doesn’t work.
