What is an electronic prescription?
An electronic prescription is the most convenient way to receive a prescription from your doctor. It is a digital version of the paper prescription that we have all been using for many years. They are more convenient, safe and secure than paper prescriptions, particularly hand written traditional scripts.
How do I get an electronic prescription?
Simply ask your doctor for an electronic prescription at your next doctors’ consultation. You will be able to receive the script instantly by SMS or email. Doctors issue them using their regular prescribing software in the medical clinic. The script is in the form of a QR code.
