I have just noticed while reading about the PIP scheme at:

about halfway down the page:

"Two of the associates are interested in clinical computing. There is a computer in each consulting room, and these are networked so that clinical records can be accessed from any room. All GPs use the standard approved prescribing software."

Gee, I hope that my practice is using the standard approved prescribing software. I wonder which package it is?

I presume that one has to nominate a proper prescribing package of some form - ie not just use a word processor or something in order for the govt to pay up.
