e-Prescribing integration
Surescripts integration for telehealth
Reach the national pharmacy network behind modern e-prescribing.
Surescripts is the routing network that connects prescribers to pharmacies across the country. Turbopills relies on Surescripts-connected prescribing so approved telehealth orders reach the patient's pharmacy, and so providers can pull medication history and benefit information when it matters.
What is Surescripts?
Surescripts operates the largest health information network in the US for e-prescribing, medication history, and prescription benefit data. It is the backbone that connects prescribers, EHRs, pharmacies, and pharmacy benefit managers.
