Last chance to avoid e-prescribing payment penalty

June 30 is the last day you can report electronic prescriptions to avoid a payment penalty under the Medicare Electronic Prescribing program in 2014.

If you do not successfully e-prescribe, or successfully file a hardship exemption, you will receive a 2% penalty on all Medicare Part B claims in 2014. If you still need to complete your e-Rx submissions, or if you're not sure whether you've satisfied the program, please check out the eRx page on the Running a Practice section of the College website.
