Today, there is nothing you can’t do over the internet. You can do your groceries online and have them delivered at your home; find a reputable job and work from home and even fill your medication online with an electronic prescription. In order to be able to get your prescriptions online, the EMR has to be the same with your doctor’s office and the online pharmacy to work, all you need is for your electronic medical record to be accessible via your online pharmacy, so before you decide to do this, ask about e-prescriptions and how you can have this service.
Make sure that the online pharmacy where you will get your online prescription is a reputable one that holds a CCHIT certification or Commission for Health Information Technology certification.
