Regional Disparities Slack Progress

Despite the effectiveness of e-prescription systems in bettering the medical infrastructure, the developing nations are still reluctant towards it due to the high costs of implementation. Moreover, some of regions in the third world countries are entirely deprived of elementary medical facilities where e-prescription seems like an unachievable target. In developed nations where the global e-prescription market could potentially magnify, security breaches hamper the affluence of the market. Moreover, the vulnerability of patients’ personal information blocks the prospects of e-prescription, thus, slackening market progress. Obsolete IT infrastructure and feeble speed of internet devices are amongst other factors that hinder the market.

The move was intended to reduce the paperwork required for medical practitioners to electronically transmit the medicinal information. The AMA is also negotiating with national pharmacy networks to enable universal transmission of prescriptions. Furthermore, it aims to allocate financial resources and incentives encouraging the adoption of e-prescription by hospitals and practitioners.

The presence of few huge players in the market makes it largely oligopolistic. They are expected to make efforts to synchronize with the changing trends and needs in the medical circles.
