The bill to postpone the mandate for Eprescribing has passed both sides of the 
legislature in NY and needs to be signed by the Governor.  This will delay the 
mandate but it will not, to my knowledge, interfere with anyone who is ready to 
proceed sooner.

Subject: [nyschp.dop] Questions regarding E-Prescribing and Automated 
Dispensing Systems

Good morning,

I am looking for some input regarding different automated dispensing systems 
such as Pyxis or Omnicell, your thoughts, opinions. For a small inpatient 
psychiatric hospital.....124 beds. I have experience with Pyxis, however would 
like to know if any Directors have other experiences that they would or would 
not recommend.

Also, we have received unofficial notification that the March deadline for 
E-Prescribing has been postponded until 2016. We are already e-prescribing 
using a program which is due for renewal in three months.....Does anyone have 
any official information regarding the March 27, 2015 deadline and the 
postponement?

Thank you all.

Adele
