What is everyone in New York State planning on doing for the March 27, 2016 mandate. Do we know if GE will truly be ready for it or not?

Our site actually had a kick-off call for EPCS yesterday. GE has still not officially released the LA version though so we are waiting to hear on that. If we don't get a release date soon, then GE needs to give us the documentation to submit for waivers like they did last year.

Our kickoff call is scheduled for Feb 16th - but our practice already applied for the E-Prescribing Waiver with the state and it was approved today. Our new mandatory date is March 26th 2017.

@dlewis - this is the process we used and you just have to answer some questions and state technical limitations for the reason for the waiver and if you are creating a waiver for the practice you need to have each doctor sign and date the petition.

With March 27, 2016 as the date that all prescriptions must be electronically submitted, the New York Bureau of Narcotic Enforcement has announced the availability of the Electronic Prescribing Waivers (EPW) application on the Health Commerce System (HCS).

A prescriber must have a HCS account in order to file an electronic prescribing waiver. Using the HCS account is the quickest way to file the EPW application.

This application allows an institution, medical group practice or an individual practitioner to submit a request for a waiver from the requirement to electronically prescribe. Following are links to instructions for completing the online application on the Health Commerce System, based on the type of requestor:

- Institutionbr br [ http://MSSNY.informz.net/z/cjUucD9taT01MjQ4MTk0JnA9MSZ1PTEwMDc5ODc5MTEmbGk9MzI1MTY1ODk/index.html ]

If you do not have an HCS account, a paper version is NOW available upon request. Please contact the BNE at 1-866-811-7957 [ http://callto:1-866-811-7957 ] , option 1. The paper form is available for applications for institutions, group practices and individual practices and will be sent to requestors.

If a prescriber experiences any issues with the on-line Electronic Prescribing Waiver , they should call 1-866-811-7957.
