I made the mistake of sending the e-rx to the wrong pharmacy. I sent it again to the correct pharmacy and called the 1st to tell them of my error. Before my patient was out of the parking lot, the 1st pharmacy had my e-rx. Another pharmacist told me it takes a couple of hours to show up? A big problem I run into is that each new rx gets a new number. So when my patient calls in to the machine and reads the numbers off the old bottle they hear that there are no new refills We spend a lot of time educating them about this. It is ubiquitous with all pharmacies.
