In a side vein, I have been having problems with the KMart pharmacies in my area. They include a 1/2 page of advertising on their refill requests which are faxed to me. Before I had fax to PC these requests used up a lot of my ink and paper to print off their advertising of $4 generics. I faxed numerous requests back to them to stop and it seemed like they did for awhile. But I just got another one from them with the same lengthy, ink-gobbling advertising which, despite its potential to use up the receiver's printer resources, I find purely unprofessional. So today I simply faxed back their refill request with a note stating I would refuse to acknowledge their faxes unless they remove this unprofessional advertising from them. I shall see what kind of response I get. I bet they will tell the patient I refuse to refill their meds.
