What are the Prerequisites for an eRx?

Before you can start using eRx, you need to register your practice and obtain an eRx ID for each provider.

You will also need the appropriate Healthcare Organization (HPI-O) and Health Identifier (HI) PKI certificates that are required for e-prescribing.

1. To apply for an HPI-O certificate, you will need to complete the Healthcare Organization registration form. Applications can be completed either online or by mail. Once you have completed the registration, you will be provided with a HPI-O Number and an Electronic PKI certificate that needs to be uploaded to your practice profile in MediRecords.

2. A Health Identifier (HI) PKI Certificate is required to be uploaded into your practice profile. The practice's Health Identifier Number can be linked to your existing Medicare billing certificate (fac_sign.p12), or can be linked to a NASH (National Authentication Service for Health) certificate.
