MatrixCare has received ePrescription transmission by the Ohio Board of Pharmacy, specifically for the use of its integration with Omnicare pharmacies, FrameworkLTC and QS1 pharmacy software solutions.

The MatrixCare ePrescribing solution is compliant with the new CMS enforcement of the use of NCPDP 10.6 SCRIPT standard for the electronic transmission of long-term care prescriptions, which started November 1, the company said.

MatrixCare is one of the few EHR products in long-term care to have NCPDP compliant messaging in production, and to complete the “rigorous process for approval” through the Ohio Board, said John Damgaard, MatrixCare’s president and CEO.
