PharmaGuide Q&A

From your organization's perspective, what is the biggest challenge facing pharmacy and/or the health-care system?

The biggest challenge facing pharmacy today is the growing administrative burden on pharmacists, which takes time away from patient care. From navigating complex regulatory requirements to managing inventory and preparing for audits, pharmacists are increasingly overwhelmed by operational inefficiencies. In addition, with the ongoing evolution of pharmacy practice, ensuring compliance while adapting to new models of care is becoming more critical than ever.

 

How can we work together to overcome this challenge?

By leveraging AI-powered solutions, we can improve clinical efficiencies and enhance care outcomes by proactively preventing conditions, instead of treating them! Through our partnership with CPhA, we aim to provide pharmacists with intelligent tools that allow them to focus on clinical care rather than administrative tasks. Together, we can support pharmacies in delivering better patient outcomes while ensuring their business remains compliant and optimized.

 

What is your organization currently working on that would be of interest to the broader pharmacy community?

PharmaGuide is continuously innovating to bring AI-driven automation to key pharmacy functions, including regulatory compliance, clinical decision support, and operational efficiency. We are currently expanding our compliance tools to help pharmacies proactively manage regulatory requirements. Additionally, our AI-powered documentation system is improving the way pharmacists generate their professional service documents and communications, making compliance seamless and stress-free.

 

Why does your organization collaborate/partner with CPhA as a Technology Partner?
