OptimizeRx Corp. today announced that Allscripts, a global leader in healthcare information technology solutions, will expand its partnership to automate voucher and copay savings support within OptimizeRx’s Touchworks electronic health record platform.

"We are very pleased to work with Allscripts, a recognized leader in the industry, to expand solutions to improve better patient outcomes by addressing the proven correlation of rising out of pocket prescription costs causing poor medication adherence," David Harrell, CEO of OptimizeRx, said.

The expansion will allow healthcare providers to automatically view, print and electronically transfer prescription savings directly to the patient's pharmacy to reduce out-of-pocket costs and increase patient adherence.

The joint collaboration combines OptimizeRx's proprietary SampleMD technology exclusively to reduce the hassles and workflow interruptions of traditional drug samples and pre-printed pharmaceutical manufacturer coupons.

Several studies from physician journals and healthcare publications have shown a clear relationship between reduced patient medication costs and improved medication adherence.

OptimizeRx Corporation provides consumer and physician platforms to help patients better afford and comply with their medicines and healthcare products, while also delivering pharmaceutical and healthcare companies effectual ways to expand awareness, access and adherence to their medications.

Their SampleMD product replaces drug samples with electronic trial vouchers and copay coupon savings, which are electronically added to an e-prescription and sent electronically to the pharmacy and integrated within leading Electronic Health Record platforms across the country.
