Case Study: The Rouse Estate achieves compliance and saves hours each month with PointClickCare ePrescribing and EPCS

The Rouse Estate saves 60+ hours per month with PointClickCare

The Rouse Estate, a multi-service senior care community, faced a time-consuming prescribing workflow and needed to comply with a new Pennsylvania state law mandating electronic prescriptions for controlled substances. To address this challenge, they partnered with PointClickCare to implement its ePrescribing for Controlled Substances (EPCS) solution, which was part of the vendor's Integrated Medication Management offering.

By implementing PointClickCare's EPCS solution, The Rouse Estate automated its prescribing process, eliminating manual faxing and call follow-ups. This resulted in full compliance with state law and significant time savings, estimated at over 60 hours per month for staff. The solution also improved patient safety with automatic checks for medication conflicts and ensured prescriptions were received by pharmacists without delay.
