Doctors Trade Prescription Pads For Electronic Options

The Associated Press: More Doctors Are Ditching The Old Prescription Pad
Doctors increasingly are ditching the prescription pad. The latest count shows more than a third of the nation's prescriptions now are electronic... Surescripts, the largest network for paperless prescribing, found 390,000 doctors were e-prescribing at least some last year, and more are signing up fast. Some 36 percent of all prescriptions were electronic in 2011 (Neergaard, 5/17).
