		<description><![CDATA[We have been hearing a lot about computerized electronic prescriptions lately.  The old joke about doctors’ handwriting seems to be true in many cases, and unfortunately, in too many situations, pharmacists can’t decipher the scribble and end up dispensing the wrong medication to patients.  This is never a good thing, and though in many cases, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The news tells us on a regular basis about prescriptions gone wrong.  A physician prescribes blood pressure medication for an elderly patient but the pharmacist can’t read the handwriting, so the patient ends up with a blood thinner which causes a hemmorage that lands them in the hospital.  Or, a child is prescribed an antibiotic [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are estimates that at least 40% of individuals that have Medicare Part D do not understand their coverage.
