A healthcare startup looks to digitize the management of medical prescriptions through an e-prescription system that allows patients to directly link with pharmacies. MedRafa entices pharmacies with a free-to-use inventory management system while offering patients an easy-to-use tool to check on available medicines. The startup is a recent graduate of WeVenture Hub, a venture capital-backed incubator formed last year.
Ben Tesfaye, Co-founder and CEO of Medrafa, expects the free inventory management system to serve as a stepping stone towards the digitization of retail pharmaceutical sales. He says the ability to easily track expiration dates with alerts, purchase order management, and sales history tracking will significantly enhance the efficiency of pharmacies.
“Every dataset is seamlessly interoperable,” Ben told Shega.
The platform is built on Fast Health Care Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standards, an international framework for exchanging health care information electronically to ensure interoperability with Electronic Medical Records (EMRs). Precise prescription management, automated links to pharmacies, and easy accessibility for patients are being targeted by the founders.
Ben says pharmacies waste significant time and resources due to the manual registration of data. By showcasing the benefits of the inventory management portal, he hopes to bring about a seamless transition into their automated prescription system.
