(MIPS) e-Prescribing

You can enter the data generated from e-Prescribing in DrChrono to your Healthmonix MIPSpro account.

Description

At least one permissible prescription written by the MIPS-eligible clinician is transmitted electronically using CEHRT (certified electronic health record technology).

Definitions

Prescription - the authorization by a MIPS-eligible clinician to a pharmacist to dispense a drug that the pharmacist would not dispense to the patient without such authorization.

Permissible Prescriptions – All drugs meeting the current definition of a prescription as the authorization by a clinician to dispense a drug that would not be dispensed without such authorization and may include electronic prescriptions of controlled substances where creation of an electronic prescription for the medication is feasible using CEHRT and where allowable by state and local law.

Numerator

The number of prescriptions in the denominator generated and transmitted electronically using CEHRT.

Denominator

Number of prescriptions written for drugs requiring a prescription in order to be dispensed other than controlled substances during the performance period; or number of prescriptions written for drugs requiring a prescription in order to be dispensed during the performance period.

Exclusions - Any MIPS-eligible clinician who writes fewer than 100 permissible prescriptions during the performance period.

In DrChrono, the denominator is the total number of prescriptions you have printed or sent electronically. The numerator is the number of prescriptions you have sent electronically from DrChrono with the Send Prescription button on the Send eRx Patient Chart Tab.

In the MIPS Dashboard in DrChrono, there are 2 options for reporting: e-Prescribing and e-Prescribing Including Controlled Prescriptions. You are able to utilize the data from one of the options for the reporting period.

Please note you will need to set up the prescribers associated with your offices. See our article here for more information.

As electronic prescribing of controlled substances is possible, MIPS-eligible clinicians may choose to include these prescriptions in their permissible prescriptions where feasible and allowable by state and local law. If a MIPS-eligible clinician chooses to include such prescriptions, he or she must do so uniformly across all patients and across all allowable schedules for the duration of the performance period. See attached document for more information.
