Case Study MinuteClinicMinuteClinic owned by pharmacy giant CVS is a retail healthcare provider with more than 500 locations established throughout the country.
The centers are designed to treat patients with minor injuries or sicknesses and more than 1.8 million patient visits have been documented since the companys inception in 2000. By creating a healthcare delivery model that responds to consumer demand MinuteClinic makes access to high-quality medical treatment easier for more Americans.
As more patients used MinuteClinic resources one issue the company faced was how to pass medical information to primary care physicians. As Cris Ross chief information officer of MinuteClinic explains There are a number of things we do very well with physicians except connect electronically. Weve been looking for a business-to-business exchange.
As a solution to this problem MinuteClinic recently turned to ePrescribing connectivity network SureScripts to facilitate this exchange. It is the first time the SureScripts network has been used for anything other than pharmacy orders and related transactions.
The idea is that we already have pharmacies connected acting SureScripts CEO Rick Ratliff told Digital Healthcare & Productivity by telephone. We have an ability to identify a physician uniquely on the network.
