steve, A word of caution - as of October DrFirst seems to be using passwords - "The electronic prescription management system is Internet accessible and utilizes a secured fax, where the physician sends the prescription to DrFirst electronically and DrFirst faxes the prescription to the pharmacy. There is no electronically reproduced, "hand-written" signature, but rather a digital signature attached to each prescription. The signature is based on the content of the fax and contains 25 alphanumeric characters. To maintain security, the physician must enter a user name and PASSWORD to open the system and a different PASSWORD to send the prescription. The two passwords are checked in the DrFirst database. If the passwords match, the prescription is sent." drfirst.com ************ Notice the doctor needs TWO passwords. YIKES!! That could mean double trouble! Identix to the rescue! Rick ps - I'm reading more about DrFirst. I'll let you know if I find anything else interesting.
