Express Scripts, Greatwater Software launch new patient self-service program
November 5, 2009
Express Scripts Inc., a provider of pharmacy technology, and GreatWater Software Inc., a maker of patient self-service solutions, have launched a program that will enable patients to review options for reducing prescription costs when checking in for physician appointments.
According to a news release from the two companies, Express Scripts will utilize Greatwater's PatientPoint kiosk platform to present its members with information regarding their prescription benefit and prescription management options, such as generic drug and home delivery options.
Don Shaver, CEO of Greatwater Software, says the program will help patients understand and comply with their prescription options more easily:
An increasing number of physician practices are adopting self-service for functions such as patient registration, bill payment and appointment scheduling. Through this important collaboration, patients who are members of health plans that partner with Express Scripts will have access to prescription management options that make it more cost-effective and convenient for them to comply with their medication plans. At the same time, the initiative will provide Express Scripts with a centralized method for communicating with their member population at the point of care.
