Electronic Prescribing Cutting the Costs of Paper NDCHealth Confidential
Overview of the OnCallDataPhysician Presentation(Not for display: For VAR use only) The presentation is in four parts: • The first slide, “Physician/Office Manager Interviewing” is NOT for display to a physician. It is a list of questions you may want to use to “pre-qualify” the sale by getting the physician to focus on the cost and workflow issues inherent in the paper-based prescribing process. • The next section is a discussion of the physician’s office and human costs driven by the prescribing process. • Following this is a one-page slide on the OnCallData product’s general advantages (there is no discussion of the detailed feature-set…you can discuss that during the demo) • The final part of the presentation is verbal: demo the system and discuss the pricing offer.

Physician/Office Manager Interviewing(Not for display: Verbal) • Physician • How do pharmacy phone calls impact your day? Are they a disruption? • If you could reduce or eliminate the time eaten up by those calls, would it affect you and your office? • Have you considered an electronic prescribing system? What concerns do you have about electronic prescribing? • Office manager • Do you receive phone calls from pharmacies? How many a day? Do you get more because of questions around new prescriptions or are most of them related to requests for additional refills on an existing prescription? • Tell me how you handle pharmacy phone calls? Do you ever have to pull charts? Consult with the doctor? • How do these calls affect staff productivity? • If you could reduce or eliminate that time, how would it affect your office?
