You're not understanding, or you're arguing in bad faith. This is the system that doctors use to send prescriptions electronically to pharmacists so that the patient can pick up the medication.
Article said they were phishing (or otherwise) to get enough info from the Dr to create their own ePrescribing accounts. Then they are effectively writing prescriptions as though they are a doctor and getting them filled at local pharmacies. Just a much more sophisticated version of stealing the prescription pad and forging a signature.

Oh, so you have absolutely no personal or professional knowledge on the subject you were contributing on?
