Join us on December 4 as we talk about ScripTalk. We all have a ton of prescriptions and most of them are in those same indistinguishable bottles, which makes figuring out which pill to take when a real headache. Wouldn’t it be great if the bottle could just talk to you and tell you what you need to know? That’s the promise of ScripTalk, a free-to-consumer solution where your pharmacist puts a machine-readable sticker on your prescription. All you have to do is scan the bottle with your phone and you’ll hear everything on the label. There’s a stand-alone reader, too, if you don’t want to use a smartphone for everything. In this installment of the Digital Treasure Chest, we’ll be joined by Richie Lefebvre from Envision America, the company that makes ScripTalk. We’re looking forward to hearing from Richie about this neat product and learning how to get your pharmacy to start using it!
