How does InfoScriber stay current with new medications and related information?

Can I get data out of the InfoScriber system and put into my system?
InfoScriber can routinely provide you with a file that contains all of your prescribing data. With the file, you can import it back into your host system, provided you have a mechanism to do so. Several customers also use the file to create their own custom reports.
How can I get an InfoScriber demo?
We can give you a demonstration of the system over the Internet or in-person. Sign up for an online demonstration.
Can it work on my handheld?
InfoScriber is investigating a wide range of wireless and handheld platforms. While InfoScriber currently cannot be used with a handheld, some users are using it on tablet computers.
How do you protect confidentiality?
InfoScriber is extremely sensitive to security and confidentiality concerns. We use 128-bit SSL encryption, the most rigorous available, a secure firewall, and password/access protection. InfoScriber is fully compliant with applicable HIPAA regulations. InfoScriber will be continuously upgraded to maintain compliance with changes in HIPAA regulations.
I’m using a billing/clinical software system. Can I also use InfoScriber?
Yes. We are familiar with most widely used legacy systems and have designed programs to help the systems communicate with each other to avoid duplicate data entry. For more information and a custom analysis contact us.
Do I have to use a certain pharmacy?
No. You can develop a customized "pick list" of pharmacies or choose from our library of pharmacies in your area.
What if some of my prescribers aren’t comfortable using computers?
