Clinics CB1 Medical

@Muiredach Pretty stunning logistics here + I think they must be working this weekend. AFAIK no other pharmacies are doing this.
Some others are making similar claims, but given the delays we often see this time of year with packages from Royal Mail - I think it's a bit risky.
 
Yes! It's been there for over a year now. We're working on a similar system too so they're cross-compatible.
While I got you - do you know of any pharmacies investing in the electronic script?
 
No change in legislation occurred, most of the clinics in the industry would have immediately swapped to it if it were legalised.
Thank you @Muiredach Now I understand, they seemed so confident as you said I took it as read it would happen. The charlatan at Jorja Emerson Centre even had a template for it. I wonder what stopped the legislation changing?

CB1 Medical app known issue: When clicking repeat prescription in the app i get to see an up to date stock list for a few seconds then a pop up asks me to fill in my care plan that has not been filled in for 3 months (only been a patient here for a week or so). I just rang CB1 over this as they said it would clear after my first prescription, now they say there is an app issue for some users and that I should use the formula list in settings and email my repeat to them in early January. Sort of annoying as the formula list says not up to date at the top! Anyway, will use email January and then hopefully the app will get fixed for all moving forwards.

I may have been wrong here, I read other comments about adopting e-prescribing soon from a brand. Will make some enquiries and report back (y)
 
Seems my initial remarks were correct. In short - e-prescribing is still a no go. Below from an anonymous clinic owner, paraphrased to hide their writing style:
UK Clinic Owner said:
I had to point out the premature celebrations over e-prescribing legislation changes were stupid, as the change is only applicable to NHS, secondary care, and prisons etc. - not applicable to private clinics whatsoever, so we're still at the first hurdle.

This is the comment that made me question things, seems British Cannabis fucked up here:
Meanwhile, Adam Windish, of British Cannabis Medical, highlighted that the implementation of e-prescribing, which was permitted by the MHRA this year, would ‘significantly reduce patient waiting times, streamline the process, and encourage more people in the UK to consider medical cannabis as a treatment option’.

Doesn't matter if the MHRA allow it in certain sectors, it's still a no-go for private medical cannabis clinics.

Really unreal this industry - how sloppy everything is, on the patient journey through to prescribing so many errors introduced and a complete lack of management and just treating us as cash cow consumers. I hate to mention the R word - but I think it needs regulation. What say you?
