Our client needed a shipment confirmation system for pharmacies that, on the one hand, would be half a step ahead of the customer's expectations and, on the other, would be mobile and easy to use.

GOAL

To develop a shipment confirmation system that boosts communication with patients to receive user confirmations promptly for prescriptions and refills for a vast network of pharmacies across the US.

SOLUTION 

The system receives patient information via API (patient data is encrypted) and obtains a confirmation from the patient. Once confirmation is received, the application sends the request back to the company that made the initial request. There is also an option to make a cancellation request. SCS can be divided into two parts: pharmacy and shipping interface. The main collaboration instrument between them is the Pharmacy Refill Confirmation widget. 

RESULT

We built a fully customized and integrated shipment confirmation system for a US pharmacy chain to optimize and automate the internal workflow. The solution is fast, accurate, cost-effective, and easily accessible to decrease phone calls, emails, and paperwork, thereby increasing ROI.
