Updated dashboard for e-prescribing adoption

E-Prescription (Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare) is one of the initiatives of Healthcare DX (Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare) promoted by Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. It is an important measure to realize the national medical information platform.
Electronic prescriptions are a mechanism by which information on drugs prescribed by physicians or dentists is transmitted to pharmacists through an electronic prescription management service, and pharmacists can also register and manage information on drugs that have been dispensed.
By promoting the introduction of electronic prescriptions, people will be able to safely share drug information at medical institutions and pharmacies nationwide and check their own drug records anywhere, leading to the enjoyment of safe and secure medical care.
