Kalos and VUCA Health Partner to Provide Digital Patient Education to Pharmacies in Universities

LAKE MARY, Fla., April 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- VUCA Health announced today that Kalos, a provider of software solutions to retail pharmacies and universities, will integrate VUCA Health's digital patient education solution, MedsOnCue, with their ProPharmOne™ software. VUCA's paperless option provides an eco-friendly and economical solution to the outdated practice of stapling paper to prescription bags.

Kalos will now include a specific prompt that enables patients to elect to receive electronic medication information. With MedsOnCue, pharmacies that utilize ProPharmOne™ will also give patients the option to access enhanced educational resources for their prescriptions. These added features include on-demand informational videos, streamlined access to their pharmacy team, and detailed medication photos of their prescription to ensure safety when taking medication.

"As a leading pharmacy system for universities across the nation, we support a very tech-savvy and diverse patient population as well as pharmacies that have to be very cost conscious," says Davis Holden, Project Manager at Kalos. "Being able to provide a video-based, multilingual experience to patients, while also saving the pharmacy on printing costs, makes partnering with VUCA Health a win-win for our customers."

VUCA aims to address low health literacy and has been working directly with Executive Directors and State Boards of Pharmacies to advocate for a digital alternative to traditional methods of providing prescription information. Just last month, VUCA added Montana to the list of 44 other states where pharmacies can allow their patients to opt-in to receive their medication information through a digital platform in lieu of paper.
