Introducing Our All-New Prescription Delivery Software
iApotheca is super excited to announce our all-new Prescription Deliveries Software. As you may know, at iApotheca our focus is on making pharmacy life easier.
So why the focus on deliveries software?
I admit that the initial concept came from requests we got from pharmacists at the start of COVID-19. If you're a pharmacist, I'm sure you can understand. A global health crisis. Panicked patients. No set rules of engagement.
For many pharmacies, it was chaos.
From massive refill requests to constant questions, most pharmacies were crazy busy. And as more businesses closed across all sectors, pharmacists needed a way to deliver safer patient care. Prescription delivery came up more than once as a way to achieve that. So iApotheca answered that call with our new delivery software.
And while it was an interesting idea from the start, given the issues raised by COVID, it had other appeal as well. The more we looked into it, the more the long-term potential for pharmacies became obvious.
Why?
For one thing, we live in a delivery culture; everything from food to groceries is up for delivery these days. And throughout North America, pharmacy delivery is becoming the norm. So it makes total sense. The potential for better patient care and increasing revenue with delivery is huge. We recently wrote an article on the subject; you can read it here.
We'd love to hear your thoughts on that.
For another thing, almost all major pharmacy chains are now offering delivery service. Which means independents need an affordable way to keep up without spending a lot of time. After all, in the middle of a healthcare crisis if there's one thing pharmacies don't have, it's time. We get that, so we made simplicity a priority.
So what can you expect from the new software?

It's our system's way of optimizing your route to save both time and money.
How does it work?
Once you've added your orders to your run, click the EconoRoute button. The software will then put your deliveries in order according to the fastest route. With EconoRoute, you don't need to take time to figure out what order to deliver your packages in. This feature calculates the shortest distance between all your drop-off points.

Team Management and Multiple Locations
