Streamlining Pharmacy Economics: PrimeRx Integrates Real-Time Drug Pricing into Dispensing Workflow

NEW PrimeRx BLOG POST | For independent pharmacies operating under increasing economic pressure, efficiency and cost management are paramount. The traditional model of prescription dispensing often necessitates leaving the core workflow to manually search various wholesalers when purchasing inventory, creating interruptions, adding stress, and leading many to forgo critical cost-saving opportunities.

With this in mind, PrimeRx has announced a significant advancement in pharmacy management technology: the full integration of PrimeRx MARKET within the PrimeRx Pharmacy Management System. This integration delivers a competitive drug purchasing marketplace directly into the dispensing workflow, marking the first time such functionality has been seamlessly unified.

This shift eliminates the manual burden of sourcing medications, presenting pharmacists and technicians with real-time price comparisons and supplier options the moment a prescription is initiated. The benefits are tangible and immediate:

• Substantial Cost Reduction: Pharmacies utilizing PrimeRx MARKET have reported monthly savings of up to $80,000. On average, the marketplace identifies pricing 45% lower than primary wholesaler list prices.

• Unprecedented Time Savings: By removing the need to exit the system for procurement checks, the integration is projected to save over 520 hours of staff time annually.

• Expanded Access: The system scans inventories from over 40 wholesalers, ensuring superior supplier diversification and the ability to locate hard-to-find medications with ease.

This integration transforms the purchasing process from a tedious manual task to a strategic, automated function of the core workflow. It is a critical enhancement designed to optimize inventory costs and refocus staff time on patient care.
