What is E-Prescription & Pharmacy Marketplace?

E-Prescription & Pharmacy Marketplace is an end-to-end eRx and pharmacy network that digitizes the entire medication journey: from a doctor’s prescription to fulfillment at community or online pharmacies and final delivery to the patient.

The platform supports outpatient clinics, hospitals, telehealth providers, pharmacies, and insurers. It ensures prescriptions are legible, verified, tracked, and dispensed through licensed pharmacies with audit trails and configurable approval rules.

Core modules

• Prescriber Workspace: Web and mobile tools for doctors to search medicines, check interactions, select dosages, and issue signed e-prescriptions in seconds.
• Patient App & Portal: View prescriptions, choose a pharmacy, compare prices, request refills, track delivery, and access medication instructions.
• Pharmacy Console: Receive e-prescriptions, verify stock, suggest substitutions where allowed, manage dispensing, billing, and inventory.
• Drug Catalog & Formularies: Centralized, searchable drug database with strengths, forms, packs, generics, and insurance formularies.
• Insurance & Coverage Rules: Eligibility checks, prior-authorization workflows, and co-pay calculation where insurer integration is enabled.
