PPSC Partners with PrescribeWellness
A leading Group Purchasing Organization joins forces, brings members competitive advantage with patient engagement platform.
- (1888PressRelease) July 11, 2013 - Prescribe Wellness today announced a partnership with PPSC, one of the nation's oldest and largest pharmacy service firms, to help increase patient compliance through education and personalized outreach.
"This partnership provides independent pharmacies with the software and services they need to compete with the chain and big box retailers," said Tony Thuyen, PrescribeWellness co-founder and CMO. "The American healthcare system is shifting focus from sickness to prevention, and it's critical for independent pharmacies to build patient relationships, focusing on adherence and chronic disease management, with the right technology tools."
PrescribeWellness' software and services are designed to make it easier for retail pharmacies to help their patients improve medication adherence and more effectively manage their chronic disease. It is estimated that lack of medication adherence costs the American healthcare system nearly $300 billion annually, or 10 percent of total healthcare costs.
"Our partnership with PrescribeWellness will allow us to provide an additional value and ensure our members are delivering the best services to their patients," said Cyndi Mincy, PPSC CEO & President. "As a company that always has the pharmacist in mind, we want to be able to equip our independent pharmacists with the best in order to compete with the chains. We are so confident in PrescribeWellness that we are offering to co-op 50% of the expenses for 6 months for PPSC Gold Members in order to show our commitment to medication adherence and patient loyalty. "
LinkWellness, PrescribeWellness' pharmacy solution, addresses all obstacles to adherence with its trusted "Voice of Authority," which delivers the right message at the right time, in the right language, through the right channel and in the actual voice of the independent neighborhood pharmacist, gaining the 'personal touch' advantage.
"PrescribeWellness has helped me grow my overall fills by 10%. That's a gross profit increase of 5,000 dollars per month. Most importantly, my patients love it and my work flow is not interrupted," said Dave Smith, PharmD, a Good Neighbor pharmacist.
Participating PPSC member pharmacies can now sign up for PrescribeWellness' services, which include a free listing on AMillionMore.com, the company's wellness campaign portal that encourages consumers to take preventive healthcare steps with their local pharmacies.
