Enhancing Pharmacy Practice with MAPflow’s OTC Consult Arm

We recently reached a major milestone with the launch of our brand-new OTC Consult arm, bringing you groundbreaking algorithms for over-the-counter consultations! Designed with the same comprehensive clinical support you've come to trust, MAPflow’s latest expansion extends that support to non-prescription consultations, making it easier than ever to deliver efficient, evidence-based care.

Introducing the First Algorithms in OTC Consult: Headache & Emergency Contraception

The initial rollout includes algorithms for headache management and emergency contraception. These algorithms are a fantastic start to the OTC arm for provinces like Ontario, where these ailments currently fall outside of the prescribing scope. With our OTC algorithms, MAPflow allows you to offer high-quality, guided support for OTC consultations. Now, you can elevate informal OTC consultations to a more streamlined and documented part of your workflow.

How MAPflow’s OTC Arm Enhances Your Consultations

While you likely conduct OTC consultations daily, the OTC Consult arm brings peer-reviewed, standardized support that improves efficiency and consistency across patient interactions. Here’s how it benefits you and your practice:

1. Peer-Reviewed Algorithms: These ensure your recommendations align with the latest evidence-based guidelines, making your OTC consultations both thorough and reliable.
2. Effortless Access to Counselling Notes: Detailed counselling notes on MAPflow give you immediate access to essential information, so you can provide quick, accurate guidance to patients.
3. Evidence-Based Therapeutic Recommendations: With just a click, you can access therapeutic suggestions grounded in research, ensuring your patients receive the highest level of care when purchasing OTC products.
4. Streamlined Documentation: The platform makes it simple to formalize and document OTC consultations, allowing for better tracking of patient interactions, monitoring of OTC medications, and providing insights that inform future therapies. This documentation aligns with model standards of practice and helps you build a stronger foundation for patient care.

Why This Matters for Your Practice

The new OTC Consult arm is just the start of many enhancements we’re bringing to MAPflow to support pharmacy professionals. By expanding the scope of MAPflow to include OTC consultations, we’re empowering you to take on a more comprehensive role in patient care. This new feature not only saves time but also helps you create a consistent and thorough approach to non-prescription consultations, adding value to your practice and strengthening the patient-pharmacist relationship.

Looking Ahead: More Conditions and Services Coming Soon

The launch of headache and emergency contraception algorithms is just the beginning. We’re committed to expanding the OTC Consult arm with more conditions and services that address the evolving needs of community pharmacists. As we continue to enhance MAPflow, you can look forward to regular updates that deliver new clinical content, features, and improved workflows, all with the goal of making your clinical practice more efficient, effective, and rewarding.
