>> prescription
>> labels.
>> Under the Pharmacy Freedom Program, eligible individuals may obtain a

>> reads this
>> information aloud to the patient. This system provides a safe, private,
>> and
>> independent
>> way for the blind and visually impaired to manage their medication
>> regimen,
>> and also
>> helps pharmacies comply with ADA regulations in serving their patients.
>> The ScripTalk Station system is used nationwide by the Veteran's
>> Administration,
>> and is currently the only product on the market to provide full label
>> information
>> in a manner that meets ADA, FDCA, and HIPAA regulations.
