New online service portal for independents

Cegedim Rx is piloting a comprehensive new online portal for service provision. Release 1 of Healthi, which allows pharmacists to use one software platform for multiple services, includes functionality to help them provide flu vaccinations, the NMS and MURs. Future releases will deliver extensive service provision functionality, appointment booking, billing and reporting, and more.

The clinician portal provides a single view of the patient and visibility of their PMR, reduces rekeying of data, and allows simplified head office reporting and payment reconciliation. Healthi's patient portal helps patients to book pharmacy appointments, receive reminders, and actively engage with health plans and support by, for example, uploading their own biometric readings.

Healthi, which has been developed in conjunction with Webstar Health, is being piloted in South-East England by independent group S G Court, and also by a national chain. Richard Cox, IT manager at S G Court, said: €One of our key objectives is not only to increase the number of services that we provide, but also to give patients a cohesive range of services that bring added value to interactions with their local pharmacy€.

Clive Eckett, sales and marketing director at Cegedim Rx, said: €Ongoing consultation with our customers in community pharmacy has enabled us to deliver a platform that will transform the way that pharmacies manage service provision. This will give an increasingly patient-centric experience, to enable pharmacies to provide consistent quality with greater control of reporting and claiming.€
