In this day and age, convenience is key and that's why one Valley medical center is evolving to make filling your prescriptions even faster.
Medavail Technologies has created what's basically a vending machine for medications. Forty locations are planned for installation around Arizona.
You get your prescription in the form of a QR code, like a boarding pass. You scan your barcode, enter a pin number for security that will be verified every time, and you even get the option to speak with a pharmacist using video chat. That pharmacist also verifies each bottle of pills, getting a snapshot from the kiosk before it's released....
The kiosk is stocked with over 700 medications and that can change with the clinic based on the trends they see with patients.
Next in the works is a drive-up kiosk that would be similar to a drive-up ATM.
Dozens of pharmacy kiosks planned in Arizona
This along with Amazon will lead to a reduction in pharmacist jobs by at least 80%.
