Zusammenfassung:	Systems and methods for processing drug sample prescription transactions tha t determine whether a drug to be prescribed is eligible for sampling and/or whether the patient is eligible for sampling that drug. A prescription transaction for that drug is created and transmitted to a switch provider and is then routed to a pharmacy for prescription fulfillment. Once the prescription has been filled a message may be sent to the prescribi ng clinician. Moreover, the pharmacy may generate a prescription claim to be adjudicated b y a claim processor where the claim specifies voucher and/or coupon information associated with the drug to be sampled that is taken into consideration either prior to or durin g claim adjudication. A database containing patient and/or drug information may be used to track a patients' receipt of drug samples as well as used for analyzing and/or reporting on the use of the drug sampling prescription based system.
