RxR Briefings - Issue 2

Getting good at the AI game…

As you may know, I am fascinated by AI and its potential for pharmacy. As such, I’ve been on a quest to explore AI platforms and the innovative companies deploying AI as SaaS or augmenting within existing platforms.

You can view how AI has infiltrated our daily lives with a bit of resistance or you can take advantage of the broad access we all have to sharpen your AI knowledge by experimenting with helpful AI tools as well as learning how others are using them.

AI-rich RxRoundtable topics and speakers

We are living in a pivotal time in the AI revolution. The content you’ll have access to as a RxRoundtable Member as well as an RxR Briefings subscriber will be fueled by my own research and the what others are doing with AI so we all rise with the AI tide in our practical skills and knowledge.

This RxR Briefings’ article is no exception. I encourage you to embrace the ample opportunities to learn, explore, and play with AI to stay ahead in a world that’s changing very fast.

Why invest time learning pharmacy AI?

Imagine a world where every pharmacy prescription is cleared for dispensing…where financial assistance is presented immediately upon order…where the patient has real-time order updates without asking.
