No. Some practices don't even use computers. > It would still be nice to send off the electronic script direct from > the patient's home to the chemist.

If impatient, you may want to check out a couple of hippos: "We have pharmacies and doctors communicating via 2Hippo using our intelligent printer. using this method you can encrypt, sign and send a script (or any document). If its a script you can use patient consent to 'direct' to a pharmacy without the need to "pull' by the pharmacy, which is suitable for a small scale trial. (although we do support a 'pull' model). We have found a lot of correspondence is not scripts, such as the information flowing between nursing homes, hospitals, pharmacies, and doctors. You can try for free by registering online, or if you would like to discuss give me a call. Mobile is best.
