Primary care in the UK is currently experiencing significant pressures due to demographic shifts, workforce challenges, and increased demand for services. In response, the NHS is exploring alternative strategies to alleviate these challenges by increasing the number of physician associates, independent prescribers, and prescribing pharmacists within community pharmacies. This approach has multiple benefits, including improved access to healthcare and enhanced workforce development. By expanding the roles of these healthcare professionals, the NHS can ensure better access to medicines and reduce the demand on GP appointments, ultimately creating a more efficient and responsive healthcare system. Today’s prescribing landscape It is now even more important for healthcare professionals with various levels of training to stay up to date with the latest guidance. Ensuring that medications are taken correctly and safely is essential to ensuring optimal outcomes and minimising undue pressure on our NHS. Delivering information at the right time, in the right place

How can you help?

A recent report by the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) highlights the key role pharmaceutical companies play beyond that of developing medicine. The report emphasises that pharmaceutical companies are “experts with regards to the quality, safety, and efficacy profiles” of their medicines and, accordingly, should provide sufficient resources to guide prescribers through this challenging landscape*. As experts in quality and safety, you can provide pharmacists and patients with accurate, up-to-date supporting medical information.

Using alerts within our ProScript Connect solution can enable you to reach pharmacists at the point of dispensing, providing additional information to support improved patient outcomes. This information can support dispensing pharmacists to make informed decisions for their patients, and patient facing alerts can be printed to provide additional support, with the option to include a QR code directing them to further resources. We’ll be able to share with you the representative statistics from our pharmacies, including how many times an alert has been viewed or printed, so that you can measure the impact of your campaign.

ProScript Connect is the market leading patient medication record (PMR) software in the UK, used in over 5,800 pharmacies to dispense 260 million prescriptions annually.

From my experience as a community pharmacist, alerts within the Patient Medication Record system enable additional information to reach pharmacists at the point of dispensing. This then supports pharmacists to make informed decisions for their patients, and patient facing alerts can be printed to provide additional support, with the option to include a QR code directing them to further resources.”

Partnering with a global pharmaceutical company, we introduced a direct to patients campaign, initiated when one of their medications was dispensed in pharmacy. At this point, an alert was surfaced to the pharmacist within their ProScript Connect system, linking them to a resource that could be printed and handed to the patient. This included a QR code which allowed the patient to easily navigate to the organisation’s website for further guidance on their medication, with the aim of improving adherence and patient outcomes.

Over the 15 months we ran this campaign, we had approximately 700,000 alerts viewed within the system. This equated to 50% of all website traffic for the company during the campaign period.

When collaborating with pharmaceutical companies on campaigns, I have seen firsthand the impact of our Inform solutions, which aim to get the right information to the right person at the right point in time. Our pharma customers have given positive feedback on the metrics we are able to provide them with on a regular basis during live campaigns.”
