Could doctors scrap prescription pad?

kabc
By ABC7
Starting next month, doctors who do prescriptions via computer and e-mail direct to drug stores will get an extra 2 percent in reimbursement rates for the next two years, which could add up to as much as $1,500.

The money could help offset the costs of entering patients into electronic prescription programs.

Doctors who do not make the change by 2012 will find their Medicare payments cut.
