As patients, we’ve all been to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription for ourselves or loved ones, only to feel a little bit of sticker shock at the price of the medication. For many patients, this means facing a difficult choice: to either make a sacrifice so they may purchase their medication and adhere to their treatment regimen, or to not fill the prescription due to the financial burden. And as spending on medications in the United States increases with each passing year, the need for drug pricing transparency also increases. In this episode of The Cerner Podcast, we’re joined by Margaux Currie, Director of Product Innovation at Surescripts. Margaux leads Surescripts’ Real-Time Prescription Benefit, a Cerner solution powered by Surescripts’ network. We’re also joined by Kashif Rathore, Vice President of Interoperability at Cerner. Margaux and Kashif are here to talk about how hospitals and health care systems can adapt to the industry’s needs and consumer expectations pertaining prescription price transparency.
