Rankings are calculated to reflect new prescriptions plus responses to prescription renewal requests to mail order and retail pharmacies as a
percentage of all prescriptions within a state that are able to be submitted electronically.
Total number of physicians per state sourced from SK&A. In addition to physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants may also eprescribe in the state.
Despite the number 29 ranking, Arizona experienced explosive growth in ePrescribing by
nearly tripling the number of ePrescriptions from 2010 thru 2012

SafeRx Project
Initial Findings
Surescripts ranks Arizona as 29th in its annual SafeRx rankings
• 21% of total transactions are Refill Responses
– Above average, but number should be higher
• 50% of eligible prescriptions transmitted electronically
– Top 5 average = 66%
• 70% of visits with Rx benefit eligibility requests
– Top 5 average = 97%
• 26% of visits with medication history responses
– Top 5 average = 49%
• 56% of patients with available Rx benefit & Med history data
– Top 5 average = 73%
11
Strategy to Improve
SafeRx Ranking
• Payer Outreach
– Low percentage of visits for which eligibility, benefit and
medication history data is available
• Targeted Prescribers
– Low percentage of requests medication history (EHR)
– Low percentage of eligible prescriptions routed electronically
(prescriber)
• Community Awareness
– Low percentage of eligible prescriptions routed electronically
(patient)
The three components are complementary of one another, and the success of one
will positively effect the others. The net result of the approach will increase the
volume of SafeRx-measured transactions
