Two questions:

1. Does seeing my signature on a faxed copy of the prescription qualify as 
'seeing the signature'?;

2. What is special about the first time?  Doesn't the pharmacist need to see my 
signature on every PBS prescription that I write, whether it is the first 
dispensing of that drug for that patient or not?
