Mandatory ePrescribing for Controlled Substances
As of January 1, 2024, the Illinois Dental Practice Act requires electronic prescriptions for any controlled substance in Schedules II-V. The act allows for an exemption if the prescriber certifies to the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation that he or she will not issue more than 150 prescriptions during a 12-month period.
Illinois Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (ILPMP)
All prescribers with a State of Illinois issued controlled substance license must register with the ILPMP regardless of practice type. It is mandatory to search the ILPMP upon prescribing Schedule II narcotics.
Stay on top of these legal requirements with iCoreConnect’s iCoreRx. In addition to ensuring compliance, iCoreRx allows you to:
- ePrescribe controlled substances and other medications from any device, anywhere, with cloud-based software
- Connect directly to the Illinois Prescription Monitoring Program for immediate prescription history checks
- See interactions and contraindications to improve prescription safety
- Autofill important patient information and favorite pharmacies and prescription combinations to improve speed and increase efficiency
iCoreRx offers an option to integrate with ILPMP to directly access the patient’s prescription drug monitoring program (PMP) history in just seconds. Streamline the process while ensuring adherence to Illinois law and boosting patient safety.
Texas Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) and iCoreRx
In 2020, Texas law required that pharmacists and prescribers check a patient’s PMP history through Texas PMP AWARxE before dispensing or prescribing controlled substances including: opioids, benzodiazepines, barbiturates, or carisoprodol.
iCoreRx offers an option to integrate with Texas PMP AWARxE. Streamline the process and improve prescription speed and efficiency while ensuring adherence to Texas law and boosting patient safety. The integration allows prescribers to directly access the patient's PMP report without logging into the Texas PMP site.
