The Evolution of Pharmacy Services Technology: How Innovation is Transforming Healthcare at Advanced Rx

At Advanced Rx, we are passionate about staying ahead of the curve in the ever-evolving world of pharmacy services technology. We believe in harnessing innovation to deliver the best possible healthcare experience for our physicians' clinics and their patients. Below we explore three key areas where technology is transforming the way we dispense medications:


1. In-Office Dispensing: Streamlining Efficiency and Convenience

Gone are the days of waiting in long lines at a traditional pharmacy. In-office dispensing allows patients to receive their medications directly from their doctor's office. This eliminates the need for a separate trip to the pharmacy, saving patients valuable time and improving medication adherence. Our industry-leading technology streamlines the in-office dispensing process by offering:

  • Automated Dispensing Systems: Advanced Rx utilizes its own proprietary automated dispensing system called ezDispense to manage medication inventory and dispense medications accurately and efficiently. Our HIPAA-compliant system reduces the risk of human error and frees up healthcare staff to focus on patient care. It also allows for faster and more secure transmission of medication inventory requirements for in-office pharmacies, ensuring medications are readily available during patient appointments.

  • Electronic Prescriptions (e-Prescribing): ezDispense is Surescripts EPCS certified for e-prescribing, which expedites dispensing and eliminates the potential for errors or diversion associated with handwritten prescriptions.

  • Automated Prescription Drug Monitoring Program Reporting: Our system automatically sends PDMP reports for dispensing controlled substances and zero reports as required by the state.


2. Mail Order Pharmacy: Delivering Convenience Straight to Your Patient's Door

For patients who prefer the convenience of home delivery, Advanced Rx offers a robust mail order pharmacy service that is driven by technology through automated dispensing and packaging systems. This service is ideal for all patients and offers the convenience of free medication delivery directly to their door:

  • Robotic Dispensing Systems: Our Parata Max II machine stores, retrieves, and counts medications with incredible speed and accuracy, significantly reducing manual labor and the risk of errors.

  • Medication Synchronization: Our knowledgeable staff, along with our technology systems prepare your patient's medications on the same day and follow up with them monthly to ensure they have their next refill before they run out of medications.

  • Discreet and Secure Packaging: Your patients' medications arrive discreetly and securely at their doorstep, requiring a signature for delivery. Enjoy the convenience of home delivery without the hassle of waiting in line at a pharmacy.

  • Medication Management Support: While technology enhances efficiency, we believe in the irreplaceable value of human interaction. Our Advanced Rx pharmacists are always available to address your patients' medication questions and ensure your prescribed prescriptions are working as intended, free from unwanted side effects.


3. Wholesale and Repackaging of Medications: Optimizing Formularies to Enhance Patient Care

Advanced Rx employs advanced technology for wholesale and repackaging medications. This process allows us to provide cost-effective solutions for healthcare providers and patients:

  • Customized Dosing: Our custom medication quantities can fill the needs of every patient and every office.

  • Reduced Costs: Wholesale repackaging can lead to significant cost savings for healthcare providers and patients, making necessary medications more accessible.

  • Formulary Optimization: Our advanced technology allows our team to optimize medication formularies, ensuring therapeutic guidelines and practice goals align with one another and optimize medication therapy.
