Introduction
Information Technology (I.T) has over the years since its
inception, played major roles to help solve problems in our
society. Some of these aspects of our lives that have been
affected positively and negatively by I.T include the
educational sector, business, mining industry and the health
sector. Through I.T, software, computer networks and the
internet has helped us with the processing of data, storing
the results and disseminating it making it available to the
various sectors which need it to help them in their
development.
Information Technology has presented several opportunities for
improving the performance of health systems in developing
countries. This has been demonstrated in several projects in
developing countries across the globe. The availability of
affordable and easy to use systems and equipment has also
contributed to several initiatives aimed at improving the work
of health care providers.
Mankinds continued reliance on technology is driven by the
need to maximize efficiency and also make things as convenient
as possible. As a result, E-prescription has been a possible
technological option to help solve some of the problems that
are obviously or obliviously encountered directly by health
providers and indirectly by the health care consumers.
