The challenge

Pharmacies today face waves of challenges, from labor shortages and complex government regulations, to evolving patient expectations, time-consuming manual processes and costly equipment maintenance and improvements. As pharmacists’ responsibilities shift and expand, they need options beyond the traditional central fill model — options that give them the resources they need to provide exceptional care for patients.

Centralized fulfillment benefits

CoverMyMeds’ central fulfillment and prescription solutions are designed to create efficiencies and add value for pharmacies through outsourcing fulfillment and prescription automation duties. This can also help pharmaceutical brands by supporting their non-commercial programs, such as free drug dispensing and patient assistance programs (PAPs).

  • Address labor shortages with scalable pharmacy automation

    Process 500–80,000 prescriptions per production shift with minimal labor and oversight.

  • Reduce cost-to-fill

    Three features in our solutions are designed to directly reduce cost-to-fill: even and consistent daily throughput, efficient dispenser utilization and reduced replenishment interaction.

  • Centralize and optimize operations

    With prescription automation, pharmacies of nearly any size can process prescriptions at a central location, without manual and daily medication management at each store.

  • Improve adherence & patient care

    With automated processes and separate facilities to store, manage and dispense medication, pharmacy staff can spend more time helping patients at the counter.

  • Reduce on-site inventory & excess cost

    With a pay-per-script fee structure, organizations can realize the benefits of centralized dispensing without requiring a significant upfront investment or ongoing maintenance fees.

  • Enhance quality control & minimize errors

    By design, this solution focuses on safety and accuracy through robotic filling. Several safety measures are in place such as vision technology, scales, barcodes and RFID technology to help ensure accuracy.
