What is Hey Pharmacist?

Combined with NHS login, IM1 enables your patients to see their repeat medication order in real time. When you patients order their repeat medication, the request drops straight into the GPs workflow. Upon approval, your patents will be informed via automated messaging and the prescription will come to you to dispense.
