IValueHealth.NET creates new services to support pharmacists’ contribution to primary care

March 30, 2013 - PRLog -- iValueHealth.NET, the first multilingual Europe-based platform, unveils new services to improve the contribution of pharmacists to public's health and reduce health inequalities. They are now able to offer advice, information, and instructions to patients about specific medications, through enhanced infrastructure which allows reaching them more easily. They can provide medication management services at any time, via the platform, to help patients control chronic illnesses and work to prevent adverse drug reactions by educating and guiding the public.

Very often, pharmacists are untapped resources for health and their knowledge, skills, and proximity to the public are not used sufficiently to improve public health and awareness. iValueHealth.NET platform enable pharmacists to become visible within the medical community, by publishing medical information and stay in regular touch with patients visiting them. By looking into trends they can share and spread reliable information in line with the needs of patients. Pharmacists can use their expertise to contribute to primary care not only locally, but also globally - in developing countries where access to quality health information is still not a given.

Medical stores can also enable their patients/customers to access directly their product catalogue and stock availability via the platform, avoiding unnecessary travel for patients. In some European countries, where the regulations allow such actions, medical stores/pharmacies can develop customized promotional activities (such as loyalty cards). Patients can acquire loyalty points for their purchase that they can use for different services on the platform or at the medical store.
