I saw one system that seemed like a must have: apps that ensure you got the prescription right. Paper-loving doctors screwing up prescriptions harms a lot of patients. Especially when they insist on writing in cursive.

Much of your post seems to be about bad tech, though. It could mostly be mitigated with a supplier that gave a shit.



Prescriptions ordered electronically seems to be the only thing that is an improvement.

Everything else is not only bad IT, but ruins your interactions because the medicinal person is bent over a laptop.


Also sounds like a shitty pharmacist and pharmacy tech.


I'm not going that far. What I read implied it was either a mental slip or illegible writing. Some of the drug names look similar when they're written in chicken scratch.
