  • Abstract
    The use of technology is extremely beneficial in terms of efficiency and in the means of supporting patients. The barriers of current communication will be discussed and ideas will be proposed to help improve. There are many challenges in this industry due to the extensive range of audience from the elderly to the young and the fit and healthy to extremely ill patients. Promoting a means of enhanced communication will allow the support of pharmacies to reach their full potential. We propose the development of a Prescription Tracking System that improves upon current offerings, bridging the barriers between healthcare and patient communications.
