ScriptPad is Australia's first and only standalone ePrescribing app. It allows prescribers across all health and medical fields to quickly, easily, accurately, and securely create and send ePrescriptions to their patients via SMS or email — from anywhere in the world, at any time, on any device.

Do I need a Practice Management System (PMS) to use ScriptPad?

No — ScriptPad is a fully standalone ePrescribing solution and does not require a connected PMS. However, ScriptPad does integrate with many of the leading PMS platforms on the market, making it easy to complement your existing workflow if you choose to connect them.

What devices does ScriptPad work on?

ScriptPad works on any device — iOS and Android smartphones, iPad and Android tablets, and desktop computers. You can ePrescribe from a ward round, a telehealth consultation, a home visit, or your clinic — wherever you are.

How does a patient receive their ePrescription?

When you send an ePrescription via ScriptPad, your patient receives a unique QR-coded ePrescription directly via SMS or email. They can then take this QR code to any Australian pharmacy to have their prescription dispensed — no paper required.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — ScriptPad offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required and no lock-in contract. Simply sign up, have your prescriber details verified by our team (up to 3 business days), and you can start ePrescribing right away.

Does ScriptPad support PBS, Schedule 8, and Authority prescriptions?

Yes. ScriptPad fully supports Schedule 8 (controlled drugs), PBS and RPBS prescriptions, Authority ePrescriptions with automatically generated authority numbers, and custom compound formulations. Built-in PBS medicine indicators guide every prescription.

Can I use ScriptPad for Telehealth consultations?

Absolutely. ScriptPad is purpose-built for both in-clinic and out-of-clinic prescribing, including Telehealth. Since it works on any device from anywhere in the world, it's ideal for prescribers conducting remote consultations.

Can I set up my clinic on ScriptPad?

Yes. ScriptPad includes clinic setup functionality, allowing you to share patients across your clinic, set up admin logins for support staff to add new patients, and manage multiple prescribers under one clinic account.

How long does it take to write an ePrescription in ScriptPad?

Most prescribers can write and send a complete, compliant ePrescription in under a minute. ScriptPad's streamlined workflow, comprehensive drug database, and multi-item script templates are designed to make ePrescribing as fast and frictionless as possible.

Is ScriptPad compliant with Australian ePrescribing standards?

Yes. ScriptPad is fully conformant with the Australian Digital Health Agency (ADHA) ePrescribing standards and is integrated with MediSecure, Australia's national ePrescription delivery network. Every ePrescription is secure, fraud-proof, and compliant.

Do you have a plan for larger clinics or hospital networks?

Yes. If you have 50+ doctors, need an API integration with your Patient Management System, or are part of a hospital or health network, our team can build a custom plan for you. Talk to our Sales team →

How to ePrescribe in Australia →

ScriptPad vs other ePrescribing options in Australia

Australian ePrescribing options generally fall into two categories: standalone clinical scripting tools, and prescribing modules embedded inside a practice management system (PMS). ScriptPad is standalone — you can prescribe without changing your PMS, and still use it alongside a PMS when that suits your workflow.

Choose by how you work: mobile and telehealth flexibility, multi-clinic use, or prescribing outside a single PMS chart favour standalone. Deep in-chart integration may favour a PMS-embedded module. Compare features against how your clinic works.

★★★★★

"This is an effective way to get prescription drugs to patients without having to deal directly with the pharmacy. The software is very good and the built-in drug information is very useful. Certainly an e-prescribing tool that all prescribers would benefit from, and should be considered by all health professionals!"

"An amazing, innovative and well-designed electronic prescribing platform with an active development team behind it."

"ScriptPad has been extremely useful. The ability to write a discharge e-prescription whilst on a ward round has been a significant time saver, especially with all of the in-built PBS restrictions, authority numbers, quantities etc."
