PHARMACY SOLUTIONS: Auto-Fax

Eliminate Manual Faxing
Tired of manually faxing refill requests to physicians? Save time and money by automating this task with Auto-Fax. More than just a fax dialing program, Auto-Fax is a fax monitoring system. Quickly select prescriptions from the Patient Profile or during the Fill process and electronically fax New Prescription, Prior Authorization, Step Therapy or Drug Substitution requests to the physician without any manual intervention. Auto-Fax notes the time, date and completion of the fax to the physician.

Auto-Fax in E-Prescribing Age?
You might be asking yourself why you would need an Auto-Fax solution when more and more physicians are adopting e-prescribing technology? While it's true that e-prescribing technology is gaining wider acceptance by physicians, as of 2009, only 25% of office-based physicians had e-prescribing capabilities. That still leaves a large number of physicians (especially in rural areas) that want new prescription requests communicated to them electronically...preferably by fax.

Save 100 to 150 Hours Per Year vs. Manually Faxing
A typical pharmacy might fax 20 to 30 Rx renewal requests per day. With the length of time to print and manually fax these requests averaging one minute, over the course of one year this can add up to 100 to 150 hours of wasted time. Auto-Fax relieves the pharmacy staff from this task, freeing up valuable time that can be spent on more productive pharmacy-related activities.
