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.
