Apparently, not all pharmacies are participating.  Here in Phoenix, some 
Frys Pharmacies aren't participating, and they are reluctant, due to there 
being too few customers that would use these devices.
1    When the Frys Pharmacy my spouse uses wouldn't cooperate, the following 
information was passed on to her.

This lady is an advocate that works with helping to get pharmacies to 
cooperate.

I must inform you, expediency has a lot to be desired.  It's been since 
March of this year since she's heard from this person.
