Overview

There are currently two known options for e-prescribing in OpenEMR. Newcrop, a subscription service, is well integrated into OpenEMR. Integration with Allscripts has been good in the past.

Meaningful Use

The Newcrop solution can be deployed to achieve Meaningful Use. The other alternative for the end user to obtain Meaningful Use is to add both the Allscripts module and the Greasemonkey script.

Allscripts

Integrates the Allscripts ePrescribe website with OpenEMR.
  • Clicking the green button, with the question mark in the middle of it, navigates to the Help Section. This button is located at the bottom. The Help Section will give instructions how to e-prescribe from this website.
  • It is not necessary to subscribe to Deluxe Allscripts to use the Greasemonkey script. Use Free Allscripts instead.

  • Check the Add-ons Manager of Firefox to ensure that Allscripts IntegrationMM had been installed.


  • Go to the Patient Summary screen and click the "Allscripts" button at the top, to the right of the patient's age. If viewing with split screens, the Allscripts logon will appear in one of the two screens. If a check mark had been placed in the box between the patient's age and the "Allscripts" button, clicking the button will cause the Allscripts logon to appear in another tab.

  • If the Untrusted Connection warning appears in a split screen and an exception cannot be added, open Allscripts in another tab.

  • Click "I Understand the Risks" and add an exception.

Nota Bene

If Firefox had been installed with a version prior to 31.0, it will be necessary to do the following:

  • Uninstall Greasemonkey and the script.
  • If the user has browser customizations, Sync should be used to preserve them.
  • Uninstall Firefox and reinstall the latest version.
  • Reinstall Greasemonkey and the Allscripts IntegrationMM script.
