A validating tracking system for tracking deliveries of prescription medications from a pharmacy includes a cash register, sniffer, scanner, credit card machine, monitor, computer, and printer. The scanner scans prescription numbers from a prescription bag at the time of delivery. The sniffer intercepts a copy of the scanned prescription numbers as transmitted from the scanner to the cash register, and displays the prescription numbers and identification of medications in a patient consultation form displayed on the monitor. The monitor is capable of digitizing and electronically storing a customer signature traced-on the form on the screen with a stylus. The computer maintains a database including a list of all prescription numbers ordered by the patient and a copy of the consultation form with the digitized signature showing date and time of delivery.
