Patent

CA 2506975

Some embodiments of the invention provide an electronically-aided system and method for processing drug prescriptions in a manner that may reduce the number of lost and/or incorrectly filled drug prescriptions without disrupting existing operating procedures within a pharmacy or an inpatient health-care facility. In such embodiments, the potential for human error is reduced by reducing the number of times information is manually processed, handled and/or transcribed by individuals in the health-care staff. By contrast, hand-written notes and instructions provided by a doctor are automatically electronically captured by a digitally-enabled pen, as the doctor writes. The respective electronically captured data can be processed into image files and sent to a pharmacy, thereby significantly reducing the number of times information is manually processed, handled and/or transcribed by individuals in the health-care staff.
