According to our latest research, the global Electronic Prescribing System market size will reach USD 13290 million in 2031, growing at a CAGR of 27.1% over the analysis period.
An Electronic Prescribing System (EPS) is a digital system that allows healthcare providers to electronically generate, transmit, and manage prescriptions for patients.
Physicians or other authorized healthcare providers use a computer - based system, such as an electronic medical record (EMR) system or a dedicated prescribing software, to enter the details of the prescription. This includes information about the patient (name, age, allergies, medical history), the medication (drug name, dosage, frequency, duration), and any special instructions. The electronic prescription is then transmitted directly to the pharmacy selected by the patient. This can be done through secure electronic networks or interfaces that connect the healthcare provider's office to various pharmacies. In some cases, the system may also be integrated with insurance companies to check for coverage and eligibility in real - time. Upon receiving the electronic prescription, the pharmacy's system automatically processes it. The pharmacist verifies the prescription details, checks for any potential drug interactions or contraindications, and then fills the prescription. The patient can then pick up the medication at the pharmacy or, in some cases, have it delivered. Patients can access their prescription information electronically, allowing them to view and manage their medications more easily. They can also provide this information to other healthcare providers if needed, improving the continuity of care.
The process of prescribing and filling prescriptions is streamlined, saving time for both healthcare providers and patients. By eliminating hand - written prescriptions, the risk of errors due to illegible handwriting or incorrect transcription is significantly reduced. The system can provide alerts and reminders to healthcare providers about potential drug interactions, allergies, or other patient - specific factors that need to be considered when prescribing medications. This helps prevent medication errors, which can have serious consequences for patient safety.
The global Electronic Prescribing System market is experiencing rapid growth with a promising future. There is a growing demand for the integration of e - prescribing systems with other healthcare information systems, such as Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and Electronic Health Records (EHR). The continuous development of cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and machine learning technologies is also being integrated into e - prescribing systems. Integrated systems can improve workflow efficiency, reduce data entry errors, and provide a more comprehensive view of patient information.
The market has a diverse competitive landscape with numerous players. In North America, companies like Surescripts, DrFirst, Athenahealth, and Epic Systems Corporation hold significant market shares. These companies have a strong presence due to their advanced technology, rich experience, and wide customer bases. In recent years, there has been a trend of mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships among market players. For example, in February 2022, NextGen Healthcare, Inc. announced a partnership with Verato to incorporate patient matching into the NextGen Health Data Hub (HDH) platform.
North America dominates the global market. The region has a high level of healthcare informatization, with a large number of hospitals and clinics widely using e - prescribing systems. The increasing healthcare expenditure and the implementation of relevant policies and regulations have promoted the development of the e - prescribing market.
