Improve Pharmacy Patient Engagement Through Tailored Automated Conversations

Provide more value to your patients and your organization.

Pharmacy operations are focusing on value-based outcomes. This requires effective engagement strategies to help patients get the most benefit from their medications. As the landscape shifts to specialty therapeutics, more touchpoints are required to get patients onto therapy and ensure they have a positive experience over time. This presents a challenge for traditional outreach approaches: one-way touchpoints are inadequate and telephonic staff outreach is inefficient and costly to scale.

mPulse Mobile’s Conversational AI solutions are designed to help increase pharmacy patient engagement and improve the overall experience. Through our partnerships with leading pharmacies and PBMs, we’ve demonstrated that a blend of omnichannel engagement and focused conversational touchpoints build stronger relationships with patients.

By taking a conversational approach to engagement, patients become better informed about their medications and pharmacy organizations can gather patient-reported data and insights more efficiently. Together, this leads to improved therapy management and a better patient experience.
