What Clients Say

"Before AIQ Labs, our 12-store chain was bogged down verifying quarterly formulary changes from Express Scripts manually—it took 2-3 hours daily and nearly cost us $15K during the 2023 metformin recall. Their knowledge base cut our average lookup time from 20 minutes to under 45 seconds per query using integrated alerts. We've avoided two potential DEA compliance issues in the last year alone, and our staff morale is way up with more time for immunizations."

Dr. Emily Chen, RPh

Chief Pharmacist, Midwest Pharmacy Group (12 locations in Illinois and Indiana)

"We integrated their system with our Epic EHR last quarter, and it's been a game-changer for handling patient allergy alerts via HL7 interfaces across locations. No more phone tag between stores for penicillin cross-reactivity checks; everything's centralized and HIPAA-secure with audit trails. Saved us about 18 hours a week chain-wide on med rec, letting us focus on expanding to telepharmacy without the usual compliance headaches."

Mark Rivera, PharmD

Operations Director, Coastal Rx Network (15 sites along the Eastern Seaboard)

"As a smaller chain with five locations, we couldn't afford siloed knowledge leading to errors in USP <795> non-sterile compounding scripts, like incorrect API dilutions. AIQ's automation standardized our protocols overnight with built-in validation tools. In the first three months, we reduced error rates by 60% per internal audits and trained new hires 40% faster on sterile hood techniques. It's like having a board-certified compounding consultant in every store."

Sarah Patel, BS Pharm

Compliance Manager, Heritage Pharmacies (Independent chain in rural Pennsylvania)

Common Questions

How does your knowledge base ensure HIPAA compliance for our pharmacy chain?

Compliance is baked in from day one. We use encrypted storage, role-based access controls, and anonymized query handling to protect PHI. All data flows through HIPAA-certified pipelines, with regular audits mirroring pharmacy board standards. For instance, when ingesting patient allergy data, it's tokenized to prevent breaches. Our track record includes zero incidents across 50+ healthcare deployments, and we provide full documentation for your compliance reviews. This setup not only meets but exceeds requirements, reducing your audit preparation time by 30%.

Can this automation handle differences in state regulations across multiple locations?

Absolutely. We design the system with geo-specific knowledge layers, automatically routing queries to relevant state guidelines—like California's stricter opioid rules versus Texas. The AI tags and prioritizes content by location, ensuring pharmacists get accurate, localized info without manual filtering. In one chain we served, this cut cross-state errors by 70%. It's fully customizable, so as laws evolve, updates propagate instantly chain-wide, keeping you ahead of compliance headaches.

What kind of time savings can we expect in daily pharmacy operations?

Based on benchmarks from the American Pharmacists Association, manual knowledge lookups consume 15-25 hours weekly per store. Our automation delivers 90% faster resolutions—think seconds for drug interaction checks instead of minutes. Clients report reclaiming 12-18 hours per location for patient interactions, with ROI hitting in 4-6 months through reduced overtime and errors. We track metrics post-launch to optimize further, ensuring sustained gains as your chain scales.

How do you integrate this with our existing pharmacy software?

We specialize in deep, two-way integrations with systems like PioneerRx, QS/1, or Epic Bridges, pulling in real-time data for contextual knowledge delivery. For example, a prescription entry can trigger an instant allergy alert from the base. Unlike superficial plugins, our custom APIs ensure reliability, even during high-volume periods. Implementation takes 4-8 weeks, with minimal downtime, and we provide ongoing support to handle updates without disrupting operations.

Is the system scalable if our pharmacy chain adds more stores?

Yes, our enterprise-grade architecture is built for unlimited growth. It uses modular cloud infrastructure that auto-scales with user load—no performance dips when expanding from 5 to 50 locations.
