E-prescribing in clinical practice.

E-prescribing is coming of age. It promises to reduce medication errors and adverse reactions from incompatible drug combinations. This article provides an overview of the factors that have driven greater adoption of e-prescribing, principally the promulgation of HIPAA regulations and the Medicare Modernization Act of 2004. It discusses the financial considerations that have delayed the greater use of existing methodology, addresses current government and industry initiatives, and defines some of the standards that have been set forth to date.
