  • Publication number: 20210313031
    Abstract: A system, method, and apparatus for pharmacy remote verification is disclosed. In an example, a pharmacy remote verification apparatus is configured to receive, from a local pharmacy system, a set of prescription fill information for remote verification for a plurality of prescriptions. The pharmacy remote verification apparatus creates an ordered list of the prescriptions based on an urgency such that a most urgent prescription is ordered first for review. The pharmacy remote verification apparatus receives, from a remote verifier device, a request message to review a prescription. In response, the pharmacy remote verification apparatus causes the first ordered prescription to be displayed on the remote verifier device. The remote verifier device may provide a verified message, which is relayed by the pharmacy remote verification apparatus to the local pharmacy system to enable the corresponding prescribed medication to be released to a patient.
