Electronic Prescribing
Cutting the Costs of Paper
NDCHealth Confidential
Overview of the OnCallDataPhysician Presentation (Not for display: For VAR use only)
The presentation is in four parts:1. The first slide, “Physician/Office Manager Interviewing” is NOT
for display to a physician. It is a list of questions you may want to use to “pre-qualify” the sale by getting the physician to focus on the cost and workflow issues inherent in the paper-based prescribing process.
2. The next section is a discussion of the physician’s office and human costs driven by the prescribing process.
3. Following this is a one-page slide on the OnCallData product’s general advantages (there is no discussion of the detailed feature-set…you can discuss that during the demo)
4. The final part of the presentation is verbal: demo the system and discuss the pricing offer.

Physician/Office Manager Interviewing(Not for display: Verbal)
• Physician– How do pharmacy phone calls impact your day? Are they a
disruption?– If you could reduce or eliminate the time eaten up by those
calls, would it affect you and your office?– Have you considered an electronic prescribing system?
What concerns do you have about electronic prescribing?• Office manager
– Do you receive phone calls from pharmacies? How many a day? Do you get more because of questions around new prescriptions or are most of them related to requests for additional refills on an existing prescription?
– Tell me how you handle pharmacy phone calls? Do you ever have to pull charts? Consult with the doctor?
– How do these calls affect staff productivity?– If you could reduce or eliminate that time, how would it
affect your office?

procedure in claims against physicians(Physician Insurers’ Association of America)
