Running a private practice depends on removing friction from core clinical workflows. Prescribing is one of the most time-sensitive and operationally critical of those workflows, directly affecting care delivery, clinician efficiency, and patient experience.

Healthie’s E-Prescribing feature is now available on the Healthie mobile app, allowing prescribers to manage medications and send prescriptions without relying on a desktop. This update helps practices reduce delays, respond faster to medication needs, and keep clinical work moving throughout the day, even when providers are away from their primary workspace.

By extending E-Prescribing to mobile, Healthie preserves the same secure, fully integrated prescribing experience while giving practices greater flexibility to operate efficiently across locations, schedules, and care settings.

What is E-Rx in Healthie?

Within Healthie, E-Prescribing, or E-Rx, is embedded directly into the patient chart, allowing medication management to live alongside documentation, scheduling, and care planning. Prescribers can manage medications in the same workflow they already use to deliver care, reducing context switching and administrative overhead.

Healthie’s E-Rx experience supports: 

• Sending prescriptions directly to pharmacies from within the patient record
• Maintaining a centralized, up-to-date medication list per patient
• Viewing medication history and recorded allergies in context
• Keeping prescribing activity connected to the rest of the clinical workflow

By designing E-Rx as part of a unified platform, Healthie helps practices streamline operations, improve accuracy, and maintain clear clinical records. With E-Rx now available on mobile, that same integrated experience is accessible beyond the desktop. This supports providers in delivering faster action without disrupting existing workflows.

Why mobile E-Rx matters for private practices

Prescribing inefficiencies are part of a larger operational challenge. Research shows that clinicians spend 1 to 2 hours per workday completing EHR tasks outside of scheduled clinic hours, extending the workday and creating ongoing workflow strain. At the same time, mobile device use in clinical workflows continues to grow, with mobile accounting for up to 40 percent of clinicians’ digital work time, reflecting a clear shift in how and where work gets done. 

Mobile access to E-Rx helps address both realities by reducing desktop dependency and enabling prescribing tasks to be completed more efficiently throughout the day.

Key benefits include:

• Faster turnaround on prescribing tasks: Medication updates and refills can be handled as they arise, reducing delays caused by desktop-dependent workflows. 
• Reduced workflow friction: Healthie’s direct integration with Dosespot minimizes context switching and unnecessary delays.
• Better use of clinician time: Prescribing tasks can be handled in short windows between sessions, helping prevent backlog and end-of-day admin pileup.
• More consistent documentation: Medication changes stay connected to the patient record, supporting accuracy and continuity without extra steps.
• Improved operational responsiveness: Practices can respond more quickly to patient medication needs without adding staff or extending hours.

What you can do with E-Rx on mobile

The Healthie mobile app extends medication management beyond the desktop, giving clinicians access to core E-Rx functionality from their phone without added complexity.

With mobile E-Rx, clinicians can:

• View a patient’s medications directly from their profile, including active and previously recorded medications
• Add or update medications to keep records accurate and current
• Order and manage prescriptions from entirely from a mobile device
• Review allergy information alongside medication management

All medication activity remains connected to the patient record, supporting clear documentation and continuity of care regardless of where work is completed. Mobile E-Rx is designed to complement existing desktop workflows, giving clinicians more flexibility in how and when prescribing tasks are handled.

Getting started with mobile E-Rx

E-Rx on mobile is available to practices that have E-Rx enabled on their Healthie account (available for Plus plans and above). Once set up, clinicians can access medication management directly through the Healthie mobile app.

If you already use E-Rx in Healthie, getting started on mobile is simple:

• Make sure your app is updated to the latest version
• Navigate to a patient profile to view and manage medications
• Continue prescribing with the same integrated workflow — now on mobile

For setup requirements or additional details, Healthie’s help documentation provides step-by-step guidance.

Mobile E-Rx gives private practices greater operational flexibility by reducing delays in prescribing workflows and removing the need to return to a desktop to take action. Clinicians can respond to medication needs more efficiently while keeping work moving throughout the day.
