Choosing the right transmission path before you start
Hallandale's onboarding form asks clinics to select their prescription transmission method upfront because it determines the infrastructure setup: a LifeFile ERX account (native Hallandale portal), a Surescripts configuration in the clinic's EMR, an API credential exchange with LifeFile, or a fax routing setup. Clinics using EMR systems that already support Surescripts or an API connection to LifeFile — like Cerbo, for example — can order from within their existing clinical workflow without logging into a second portal. Clinics using LifeFile ERX directly get Hallandale's native EPCS-certified compounding formulary, real-time order status, and in-portal messaging.
Fizy Health sits in a different position: it is the multi-pharmacy layer that connects a clinic to Hallandale, Empower, Belmar, and other 503A partners in one cart. Per-vial cost is resolved on each catalog and cart line before checkout, and cart validation runs SIG, prescriber licensure, and stock checks before payment — so issues surface before money moves, not after Hallandale's pharmacy team flags them. For clinics that order from multiple compounders, Fizy Health replaces the need to manage separate transmission setups per pharmacy.
