Paper Abstract:	Electronic prescriptions in ambulatory care are considered to be the second most important e-health goal, after the electronic medical record in many countries. Belgium is no exception: electronic prescription are part of the successive national e-health plans since more than 10 years. This paper reviews the scientific production on the topic of electronic prescriptions (via the Dimensions database). In the second part, we then explains the fundamental principles that were adopted and faithfully realized, the main functional characteristics and the technical realization and deployment of the ambulatory electronic prescription system “Recip-e”in Belgium. Then we highlight the evolution of the main parameters and technical problems that were encountered during the roll-out phase of the Recip-e project and the remaining challenges.
