Medicare Electronic Prescribing Incentive (eRx) – ‘Qualified eRx’
Waiting Room Solutions Integrated eRx PQRI Code Submission makes Collection of your PQRI Money Seamless
Starting in 2009 Medicare started incentivizing eligible providers for submitting electronic prescriptions through the PQRI program. This permits eligible providers who report on their e-precribing activity to receive a 2% additional incentive payment from Medicare. Eligible providers can submit their ERx activity as a report or through claims. The Waiting Room Solutions integrated claim submission of the correct PQRI codes makes claiming your PQRI money seamless. Waiting Room Solutions physicians have already collected on their PQRI payments.
Also, those providers who fail to adopt e-prescribing software would see a reduction in their Medicare reimbursements by 1% in 2012, 1.5 % in 2013 and 2% in 2014 and later.
