The AAFP just sent me an email telling me that I must have actual electronic prescribing by 1/1/2009. This is impossible in our state where the Board of Pharmacy will approve only a handful of the requests for electronic presciption connectivity.
What is really infuriating is after doing their survey, the AAFP is stating that Amazingcharts is not capable to two way transmission of electronic Rx.... AND THEY GIVE A LIST OF "SOLUTIONS" of other EMR VENDORS.
The AAFP has linked up with the SURESCRIPTS and they have a list of recommended vendors.
I'm thinking about writing a letter to the AAFP that my 15 years of membership is about to be terminated as they are becoming part of the PROBLEM and not a SOLUTION with regards to protecting physician practices.
