> there's no legitimate reason for prescriptions to expire. It reminds me a bureaucracy of USSR, where there was a developed system helping to people with disabilities -- medical and social measures, -- but to be a subject of that help you need to prove your disabilities on regular basis. System was not bothered by the fact, that if someone miss a limb, than it will last forever. So a person with a missing limb was forced to "prove" his/her limb is missing every few years.
