A computer is used to produce all prescriptions for patients seen in the consulting room in this practice. This method of prescribing improves safety, saves time, decreases prescribing costs, and provides an instant audit of all important prescribing parameters. In addition, treatment is rationalised and patients are given an improved service. An analysis of my own practice prescriptions showed that only 31% were repeat prescriptions, and this concurs with national figures. This means that the savings in costs are not likely to be substantial; however, when all prescribing is done by computer from a limited drug formulary then these savings may be appreciable.
在本医疗机构中,计算机用于生成诊室中所有患者的处方。这种开处方的方法提高了安全性,节省了时间,降低了开处方成本,并能对所有重要的处方参数进行即时审核。此外,治疗更加合理,患者得到了更好的服务。对我自己诊所的处方分析表明,只有31%是重复处方,这与全国数据相符。这意味着成本节约可能不会很大;然而,当所有处方都通过计算机从有限的药品处方集开具时,这些节约可能会很可观。
