Yes! At least certain ones I know of. Super helpful with telehealth appointments and the pandemic. The chain pharmacy I go to will even transfer them between same chain locations, which was a lifesaver during the 2020 police riots and the assholes who took advantage of that confusion. I think there’s finally a central database now of these scripts, which helps.

Very cool. I saw the potential for it to reduce general fuckery from all sources way back when, but the system at that point was too buggy to give up on hand written hard copies all together.

"So your doctor gave you this prescription for #160 Adderall to be taken twice daily for an... 80 day supply? 🤔

Lemme guess, you don't have insurance to bill for this either, right?"
