Get paid for electronic prescribing
There has never been a better time to consider e-prescribing. As of right now—and for the next four years—Medicare will provide eligible care providers bonuses for e-prescribing. These incentives can translate into thousands of dollars per year. In addition, starting in 2012, there will actually be penalties for not prescribing electronically. So, don't wait to get the most out of e-prescribing; start sooner than later. There is no downside. CarePrescribe has all the capabilities you need to qualify!
| Incentive Schedule for Eligible Professionals* | Penalty Schedule |
|---|---|
| 2009-2010: Receive 2% incentive payments | 2012: Decrease of allowed charges by 1% |
| 2011-2012: Receive 1% incentive payments | 2013: Decrease of allowed charges by 1.5% |
| 2013: Receive 0.5% incentive payments | 2014: Decrease of allowed charges by 2% |
* You need to engage in e-prescribing in at least 50% of applicable cases to get those bonuses.
