PrescribeWellness

There is a growing crisis of chronic diseases in the United States, and although health care costs are soaring, our nation's health is not improving. Our healthcare system is far from perfect; fixing it won’t be simple and will require more than just the efforts of healthcare providers. Patients play a big role in improving our system, and pharmacists across the country are looking for ways to help motivate and empower patients. We had the honor of having Dr. Udit Parikh and WesternU PharmD,Candidate 2017, Jimmy Qiu, talk to us about a novel software, PrescribeWellness, that help pharmacies provide timely and helpful communications to their patients while also empowering pharmacists to capitalize on existing opportunity. PrescribeWellness is a cloud-based platform that integrates patient and provider data to give pharmacies a global look at how they are doing as a organization. Their dashboard allows pharmacists to see real-time snapshots of adherence ratings, alerts on which patients need to make a visit to the pharmacy, and a to-do-list to improve pharmacy workflow. They focus on several key areas of preventive healthcare including population health initiative that improve CMS Star and HEDIS standards, medication adherence, chronic disease management, and transitional care. One aspect that I found interesting is their incorporation of PrescribeMedicare which serves as a tool to help patients during the Medicare Part D open enrollment period. The process of choosing a Medicare Part D plan is difficult and complicated for our elderly patients, and this tool can help both patients and their pharmacist browse through and understand the different plans that are available to them so they can chose the best plan that fits their needs. PrescribeWellness is continually expanding to improve healthcare outcomes and we hope that it can offer the solution we need to improve health in America.
