eScripts

Better availability and access to prescriptions and medicines information is a key priority listed in the National Digital Health Strategy.

Electronic prescriptions or eScripts allow healthcare professionals to prescribe and dispense medicines without the need for a paper prescription. eScripts can help to reduce the risk of lost paper prescriptions, while also lessening the administrative burden for organisations.

Electronic prescriptions can be sent securely and efficiently to a patient’s mobile phone number or email as a ‘token’ or be added to an Active Script List (ASL).

Murray PHN acknowledges its catchment crosses over many unceded First Nations Countries, following the Dhelkunya Yaluk (Healing River).

We pay our respects and give thanks to the Ancestors, Elders and Young people for their nurturing, protection and caregiving of these sacred lands and waterways, acknowledging their continuing cultural, spiritual and educational practices.

We are grateful for the sharing of Country and the renewal that Country gives us. We acknowledge and express our sorrow that this sharing has come at a personal, spiritual and cultural cost to the wellbeing of First Nations peoples. We commit to addressing the injustices of colonisation across our catchment, and to listening to the wisdom of First Nations communities who hold the knowledge to enable healing. We extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
