Hello,


Just a thought, but considering last events - it could be very interesting thought to consider. Probably it is already done - then correct me if I'm wrong.


Each OP has database of theirs customers, and based on it they automatically detect old customers and doesn't allow them to purchase refill earlier or to purchase "conflict" medication. But the main problem that each provider has it's own database and so next situation is very common. User tries to purchase from one web site, fails then instead of waiting - just go to abother site and successfully purchase this medication.


It iskind of easy to develop system, which will reside in each OP provider and it wil have3 sides: 1) answerring - it will accept customer information and based on several rules - detect if similar customer exist in database and return him as an answer. 2) requesting part -just make request to server. 3) Server side - which has database of providers to request for each order.


In this way there is no concern giving out database of your customers as you just basically say did specific customer previously ordered from you. And it is easy to develop secure system, so only specific members can use it and nobody except several OP can access it.


This could be next step to common quality service, which of course will like DEA and other controlling organizations (as basically it makes the history of EACH online customer, which is very good and will make easier to makebetter onlineprescriptions ;) ).

Only problem I see here is the greedy OP will send out the reject code whether the patient has recently ordered or not, scan their database, email the patient a refill notice and know they will get the sale because all the other OPs think the patient ordered too soon. Just a thought.
