The OutcomeMD platform will help change that, allowing APC to aggregate patient-reported outcome data while providing compounding pharmacy owners granular data on how their formulations are working for patients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>\u201cThe OutcomeMD platform is something long-needed in compounding: A means of collecting and aggregating patient outcomes data in a way that\u2019s not just useful to the pharmacy but useful to the profession,\u201d said APC\u2019s CEO Scott Brunner, CAE.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Via a smartphone app, patients respond to questions about how their specific therapies are working. Owners in turn get data about those formulations using the same validated measures used in clinical trials (and that FDA uses in its database). And, with the owners\u2019 permission, APC gets access to the aggregated metadata \u2014 scrubbed of HIPAA-protected details, of course \u2014 to share with FDA and demonstrate how patients benefit from compounded therapies.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>BENEFITS TO YOUR PHARMACY<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using OutcomeMD also provides direct benefits to you and your patients.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll have more information about your formulations, allowing you to make adjustments that benefit patients \u2014 and to market your services to prescribers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients will appreciate the improved customer service; it\u2019s easier for your team to monitor their progress and respond more quickly to questions or concerns.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By highlighting success stories, OutcomeMD provides you a powerful marketing tool \u2014 it even creates graphics to share on social media and helps patients share their success on review sites.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Thanks to our partnership with OutcomeMD,<\/b> <b><i>APC<\/i><\/b> <b><i>Pharmacy\/Facility Members<\/i><\/b> <b><i>members<\/i><\/b> <b><i>receive more than half off OutcomeMD\u2019s standard subscription rates<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><b>GET STARTED<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more about everything an OutcomeMD subscription provides at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/outcomemd.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OutcomeMD.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then reach out to Lorraine Kaiser at <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"mailto:lkaiser@outcomemd.com\">lkaiser@outcomemd.com<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to schedule your demo.
