Access to PharmaNet
British Columbia's PharmaNet database
Out-patient prescriptions filled in British Columbia are entered into PharmaNet, the province-wide pharmacy network.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC considers the use of PharmaNet a best practice, and recommends that physicians use the provincial system for appropriate patient care.
