摘要

NHS Connecting for Health is advising independent pharmacies to upgrade their computer systems for release 1 of the Electronic Prescription Service to ensure they are not disadvantaged for release 2 of the service.In an interview with the online news service EHI Primary Care(www.ehiprimarycare.com),Tim Donohoe,CfH's group programme director for EPS,said that,although 42 per cent of pharmacies have been enabled for release 1,this figure is largely accounted for by the major multiple pharmacies.
