Medi-Map is now a 'Signature Exempt'

Return to eHealthNews.nz home page

1. Prescribers can produce e-Prescriptions from within Medi-Map (Create E-Script)
2. General medicine prescriptions don’t need to be signed (Endorsed ‘Signature Exempt’automatically in the signature line when created in Medi-Map from 1st April).This script can be downloaded and emailed to the pharmacy if necessary (pdf).
3. These prescriptions are immediately available to the dispensing pharmacy linked to the patient. Medi-Map will also email a notification to the pharmacy to advise new e-Script available.
4. Controlled Drugs scripts still need an ink signature, (until advised by MOH), but Medi-Mapcan create these single page CD prescriptions.

This will allow for remote medicine management AND remote creation of eScripts from the single platform for all patients managed in Medi-Map NZ wide.
