Because QuicDoc's electronic prescribing system is a web-based service, a high speed internet connection is required. This could include cable modem, DSL, or dedicated leased line connections. First contact DocuTrac Sales at 800-850-8510 to begin the approval process to qualify you as a valid prescriber.
Setup e- Prescribing
After all the required materials for e-Prescribing are returned to DocuTrac, you will be contacted with your Prescription System User Name and User ID. These are entered in the Preferences, e-Prescription window which requires the System Administrator logon.
From the Setup menu, select Preferences, and click on e-Prescription.
Check the box for Use e-Prescription System.
After you have filled in this page and clicked OK, you will need to restart QuicDoc for the new settings to take effect.
