electronic Rx submission

[roybloom]

Is there a way to send an electronic Rx to a pharmacy in OpenDental?

Getting closer.

Is there any progress on this? Albertson/Savon is advertising this on the radio for their customers that they have it already. Is there going to be a cost for this? Can a Rx be faxed from within Open Dental directly to the pharmacy fax line instead of printing it the faxing it on a dedicated fax machine?

I believe direct fax won't work on many Rx's since the actual Dr. signature is required before faxing, and a computer generated signature would be invalid. I know it doesn't makes sense, but those are the rules. Electronic prescriptions has zero votes, so we won't take action on that feature until it gets more user support behind it.
