ROCKVILLE, Md., April 27, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- DrFirst, the market and innovative leader in delivering medication management solutions that improve clinical workflows, enable secure care collaboration and enhance patient safety, announces today that it has been selected by Eye Care Leaders (ECL), the leading provider of practice performance solutions for ophthalmologists and optometrists, to integrate its medication management and e-prescribing technology with ECL's electronic health record (EHR) platforms. With the addition of Eye Care Leaders, 70% of the ophthalmologist market now participates on the DrFirst E-Medication Management platform. "Eye Care Leaders is at the forefront of ophthalmology, representing nearly half of all eye care physicians in the United States," said G. Cameron Deemer, president of DrFirst. "EHR vendors, including Eye Care Leaders, need a forward-thinking partner. As an industry pioneer, DrFirst has proven its commitment to delivering ongoing innovation and world-class, 24x7 customer service that enables physicians to provide high-quality care instead of spending time with time-consuming, administrative tasks." The average American fills 12 prescriptions per year, making medication management and e-prescribing a critical component of care delivery. Through DrFirst, ECL physicians gain access to a comprehensive platform that combines medication reconciliation and e-prescribing functionalities, including e-prescribing for controlled substances. Also included is DrFirst's Patient Advisor, which allows physicians to better identify "at-risk" patients who have a history of non-adherence or clinical care gaps. Additionally, the solution empowers physicians to support patients between office visits with financial, behavioral and clinical resources that address patients' specific conditions, treatments and self-management of disease. "We require partners that offer our customers enhanced clinical and operational efficiencies, around-the-clock, 'always there' physician support and a strategic view towards future market and regulatory requirements," said Brent Michael, chief commercial officer of Eye Care Leaders. "Our decision to utilize DrFirst reflects our trust in the market leader for e-prescribing, which has demonstrated proven success in driving enhanced patient safety and outcomes." As more physicians offer care in multiple settings, those using ECL's EHR platforms will realize tangible outcomes through the mobile prescribing capabilities inherent in DrFirst's solution. Furthermore, ECL will gain a collaborative relationship that drives more payer and manufacturer programs to its clinicians through prescription coupons and co-pay savings programs, reducing patient out-of-pocket costs and improving medication adherence. Integration with DrFirst will be available to Eye Care Leaders' customers beginning late Summer 2017. About DrFirst About Eye Care Leaders Media Contact:
