Prescribers are often frustrated with the many steps involved in checking the State of Rhode Island’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) website before prescribing controlled substances.

Prescription drug monitoring is a great use case for a health information exchange to add value to the healthcare community, by building one interface and connecting as many organizations as possible to this resource.

RIQI facilitates connections between treating organizations and the State of Rhode Island’s Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP), allowing providers to access PDMP information from within their own workflows, without requiring a separate login.

By integrating the Rhode Island PDMP into the electronic health record of treating organizations, RIQI has helped to improve clinical workflows, save time, and increase provider usage of the PDMP.
