Surescripts Expands Network

Surescripts is expanding its nationwide e-prescribing network to accelerate the digital transformation of the nation's healthcare system by enabling electronic exchange of clinical information.
Moving beyond e-prescribing, Surescripts will be building on its established network by giving participants and electronic health record partners new secure messaging tools through an investment in Kryptig. This company facilitates an open collaborative network that connects physicians with each other and their patients. More than 40,000 physicians used Kryptig solutions.
This move by Surescripts is supported by two years' worth of technology pilot work with 500 CVS Caremark MinuteClinic sites in 26 states, where nurse practitioners are using the Surescripts network to share patient summaries with physicians.
