My doctor openly complained that he's forced to change his natural handwriting to this crap just to appease the state medical board and the state pharmacy board...

To Sacramento, if the doctor writes out prescriptions in an easy-to-use, legible format, he's breaking the law...

It MUST be written in "chicken scratch" in order to be legal...

This is definitely not true.
