Healthcare redesigned, starting with prescriptions

About

We are combining existing technology and the expertise of pharmacists to redesign the way medications are prescribed, dispensed, and utilized. Prescriptions connect more providers and patients than any other aspect of healthcare. Medications are often the major treatment for chronic, life-style related diseases, which are responsible for up to 75% of all medical costs. Unfortunately, half of all prescriptions are not taken correctly and the lack of medication 'adherence' or 'compliance' is wasting enormous amounts of money every year. And when only 12% of adults are considered 'health literate', but are responsible for understanding and managing their health through prescriptions, it becomes clear where solutions are truly needed - the pills. The first step is making sure prescribers are selecting the best medications for their patients. The QwikLife Pharmacist Consult provides a live-chat solution connecting expert pharmacists to assist prescribers with medication decisions.
