jimmie is the only one who took the time to do that.
Bert,
To be fair to everyone else, when I get on a filibuster, who the heck has a chance to get a word in edge wise!!!!!!!
We have had the perfect trifecta here, -36 degrees, electrical outage, radiant floor heat with multiple plex tubes filled with water just wanting to go from liquid to solid state in a very short time. Uggghghghghh. However, all is well, electricity has been restored.
However, Friday in the office was fantastic. Newcrop was working just fine, and I may differ a bit on the stance from others, not to be ornery but to explain my point of view, but when Newcrop works I really like the service provided.
Now, I think, is the appropriate time for apologizing for using a derogatory term in another thread. I do apologize for using the term NewCr*p and have assured Bert not ever using this terminology again and I sincerely apologize if I offended other ACUB readers or any one else. My intent at the time was two fold, I was venting frustration and trying to make a play on words.
With that being said, my guess is that the blue circle of death scenario (print failure) is a Newcrop issue, and the notification of prescription failure is a Surescript issue.
I do hope Newcrop can get things rectified, and like this electrical outage here reminds me, all systems have issues that come up from time to time, with potentially dire consequences.
Bottom line, Friday reminded me of what a fantastic and efficient system e-prescribing brings to patient care, and in my opinion the integration of AC with Newcrop, when working, for me personally, works extremely well. With the drug interaction, I usually ignore any except the ones that show up red, then usually read through and decide the risk/benefit ratio, so find it quite helpful. It is not perfect but helps my old brain along a bit.
Bert, I realize this is quite a bit off tangent and hope you allow some leniency on the scope of the discussion.
P.S. I have not used any other e-prescribing companies other than Newcrop so my experience is narrow.
