My take on this is that there is a very elegant way of doing this, which is that you connect the warning to the drug at the time it's prescribed. Every drug actually has a unique identifier in Canada. It's nationwide. We're in a delightful situation when it comes to drugs--low-hanging fruit, for sure. Actually, if you link it within the context of an electronic prescribing system, that means you actually set it up so that any time that drug is prescribed, that alert comes up to say that this drug has this warning attached to it. That means that you can actually change that at midnight tonight and it will be online, in real time, for everybody who's prescribing that drug tomorrow.
It's just like the parking meters in Montreal. They change the tariffs overnight from $4 to $6 an hour. I mean, bingo, they're really in good shape. That's what you can do. That's what technology can do. It means that you have to get every physician prescribing electronically, and that's where we have lots of very valuable lessons to learn from Europe, where, effectively, they've accomplished that.
The thing I worry about, if I carry around a portable book, is that it will become like this e-mail nightmare we're in right now. Everybody's e-mailing you, and now it takes your entire day to work through all your e-mail. It would just be another morsel of information arriving on your BlackBerry. It's not integrated--I have ten warnings already on my BlackBerry, but now I'm prescribing to so-and-so, and I'm trying to remember what that warning was. There's a more elegant way of doing this.
