E-Presceriptions in the UK:
- I e-mail/phone my doctor
- They prescribe me something
- Drugs automatically appear at my chosen pharmacy next day (my chosen pharmacy can even post them to me!)
E-Prescription in Germany:
- I still need to physically go to the doctor every 3 months for them to scan my card
- I still need to physically go to the pharmacy each time to give them the prescription
- Pharmacists are no longer allowed to do substitutions if my specific medication is unavailable but e.g. the same thing with half the dose is?
