The majority of the medications that we dispense are for some of the veterans who are using contract services. They may get an interim dosage, such as an antibiotic that is needed right away. This is really a big area of cost savings for us. We disseminate medications either from the medical centre or, mostly, out of our consolidated mail-out pharmacies, where we process the refill prescriptions, and those are mailed to the veterans.
