Are we supposed to be submitting a code (cpt) to medicare when we generate an e-prescribe. How will medicare know and what do I need to do ?
Here's the
info . Basically you have to submit at least one prescription by eRx, using a certified EMR (version 5 of AC meets the criteria), during a patient encounter, for 25 patients. Medicare finds out when you add a "G code" to the encounter that indicates that an eRx was transmitted as part of the patient encounter.
The eRx incentive payment equal to 2% of your "total estimated Medicare Part B Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) allowed charges for covered professional services".
No credit for those zillions of eRxs to refill scripts from incoming faxes and telephone calls.
