A pharmacist fills the prescription AFTER a doctor writes the order.

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.

I think you’re misunderstanding the word “order.” They mean order like “Dr’s Orders” not like the Dr is generating requests to the drug warehouse.

They’re using “order” as a command, not physically buying medication. Outpatient pharmacies receive the physician’s order as a prescription, but in hospitals and clinics they’re just referred to as “orders” and could include everything from medication to diet, scheduled treatments, physical activity, etc.
