Statement By InstantDx/OnCallData Chairman and CEO Dr. Allan M. Weinstein Supporting the Launch of The National E-Prescribing Patient Safety Initiative

Posted on: Tuesday, 16 January 2007, 09:01 CST

Today's announcement of The National E-Prescribing Patient Safety Initiative (NEPSI) should be celebrated by all who have advocated the adoption of this critical technology.

The announcement is one more important affirmation that our healthcare system can be improved when healthcare providers adopt e-prescribing technology that is readily available and in use nationwide today.

Congratulations to those sponsoring NEPSI. We hope that today's announcement accelerates physician awareness and commitment to e-prescribing solutions that best meet their practice needs.
