Pharmacy groups sign up
February 11, 2014
The Chemmart, PharmaSave and
Terry White Chemists groups are
among 1095 pharmacies which
have signed up to the medAdvisor
program.
The program helped patients
manage medications and treatment
plans and was available on smart
phones, tablets and browsers,
Actavis said.
It was launched in October and
the pharmacies would support the
free program in specific stores,
making patients aware of its uses.
Actavis estimated that one in five
pharmacies had signed up, based
on 5000 pharmacies in Australia.
It aimed to address medicine non-adherence,
it said.
MedAdvisor had partnered with
GuildLink to offer the program
through the pharmacy professional
services platform GuildCare.
GuildLink ceo Ross Gallagher
said the program complemented
community pharmacy services and
helped pharmacists and patients
work together towards adherence.
“MedAdvisor patients can take
charge of managing their own
medications, while remaining
in regular contact with their
pharmacy.”
Actavis sales director Adam
Dubrich said the partnerships were
the tip of the iceberg.
“We are focused on creating more
partnerships so we can provide all
Australians, irrespective of their
location, with access to free and
easy-to-use technology that will
benefit their health.”
