Abstract: A computer software system that provides a requester and a physician with information on available cost savings for therapeutic equivalents to a patient's medication is disclosed. The computer software system can include an information-gathering template, a system administrator module, a search engine, a database and a message delivery module. The information-gathering template can be accessible by a requestor that is paying for the patient's medication and have an input field for accepting a medication name. The system administrator module can receive the medication name from the information-gathering template and instruct the search engine to search the database for a cost associated with the medication name, any therapeutic equivalents to the medication name and their respective cost.
