California e-Pedigree law delayed

To no one's great surprise, the California Board of Pharmacy voted March 25 to postpone until 2011 a law requiring that prescription drugs be electronically tracked from the time they leave the manufacturer to the time they reach the pharmacy. First enacted in 2004, the law's original deadline was January 2007. That deadline was pushed back to January 2009, and now it's been pushed back again. Included among the reasons for the decision was the concern that implementation might be done poorly.
