The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that Conservative members of Parliament are calling on the Auditor-General to investigate nearly $300-million in federal spending on a digital prescription program that is being cancelled because few doctors used it. The Globe's Chris Hannay writes that PrescribeIT was launched in 2017 as part of "axe the fax" initiatives to replace fax machines with digital alternatives, in this case transmitting prescriptions from doctors' offices to pharmacies digitally. A government-funded non-profit called Canada Health Infoway ran the project, with Telus Health as a primary vendor. Conservative MP Dan Mazier said Monday an investigation by the Auditor-General was needed to study how the money was spent and why fewer than 5 per cent of prescriptions were sent through the service. "The $300-million question is simple: Who got rich? It's time to call in the auditors," Mr. Mazier said at a news conference on Parliament Hill, accompanied by his colleagues Burton Bailey, Helena Konanz and Matt Strauss. The four MPs sit on the House of Commons health committee, which began to hold hearings on PrescribeIT after The Globe and Mail revealed in February that the project was being cancelled.
