eRx app to go live 24 Oct
September 23, 2013
ERX Script Exchange has officially
opened registrations for its new eRx
Express smartphone app (PD 21
Jun), which will launch nationally
on 24 October.
More than 1000 pharmacies have
already expressed interest in the
system, which will allow pharmacy
customers to order their scripts
using their smartphone and have
it ready for pick up on the day and
time that they want.
“This is a significant advance
in making it easier for pharmacy
customers to order their scripts,”
said Jason Bratuskins, eHealth
Products Manager with eRx Script
Exchange.
“More and more people are
choosing to use mobile apps to help
manage their busy lives...with eRx
Express pharmacies can now give
customers the option of managing
their medicines through their smart
phones,” he said.
The application integrates
directly into pharmacy dispensing
workflows as well as with the eRx
Script Exchange national eScripts
network.
Bratuskins said it also has the
potential to reduce peak times
within pharmacies, ultimately
allowing pharmacists to spend
more time helping people with
their wider healthcare needs.
“Additionally it provides real
opportunities for strengthening
customer loyalty and creating a
faster, smarter way of connecting
with your customers,” he added.
Pharmacies can now sign up at
www.erx.com.au/express to be
ready for the launch.
eRx Express costs $50 per month
to participating pharmacies on
a standard plan, or $60 for a
premium plan with a logo and
website link on the app.
Both plans include a Windows
Surface RT tablet with eRx Express
software ready to go.
