Another reason e-prescribing makes good cents
Physicians can earn thousands of dollars in additional Medicare Part B fee-for-service (FFS) revenue this year if they use e-prescribing, and it’s not too late to get started.

According to the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act of 2008 (MIPPA), beginning in 2012, organizations that continue to drag their feet on e-prescribing face reimbursement cuts on the services they provide to Medicare members.
