Making an Impact on Patients Together
As the COVID-19 pandemic accelerates change across healthcare, the Surescripts Network Alliance is innovating to tackle our shared challenges and deliver better care.
Increasing Patient Safety
We’ve improved our network-wide Quality Index Score for electronic prescriptions more than 80% since 2016.1
Lowering Costs
In several practice areas, prescribers who use Surescripts to find a less costly alternative save patients an average of $50 or more per prescription.2
Ensuring Quality Care
In 2020, we helped 137,000 clinicians from 23,414 organizations nationwide quickly see where patients received care and locate medical records.3
INTELLIGENCE IN ACTION
Smart dialog that enables better healthcare decisions
Our history, scale and experience allow us to observe the big picture and give us early insight to emerging challenges, their potential impact and how to navigate them across markets.
Care Management
A clear picture of patients and populations leads to better healthcare decisions—wherever they are made. Bringing patient insights into focus results in appropriate, timely and cost-effective care.
Specialty Medications
Remapping the specialty medication journey will reduce administrative burdens, treatment delays and costs. For patients, this means less uncertainty, less waiting and more living.
Price Transparency
Prescription price transparency is critical to improving medication adherence and patient safety. After all, medication only works if patients can access, afford and adhere to it.
Prescription Accuracy
By continuing to drive broader adoption and better data quality, e-prescribing will realize its full potential—for the benefit of every prescriber, pharmacist and patient.
