What each role should evaluate
An owner should evaluate whether one pharmacy portal covers the clinic's full formulary and whether pricing is transparent enough to set patient programs. With PharmacyLive, pricing is set by the deploying pharmacy inside their instance — not published by the software vendor — so margin questions route to the compounder relationship. An operations lead should evaluate how many portals refill day actually requires and whether batch ordering stops at one pharmacy's catalog.
A prescriber should evaluate clinical speed and rejection rates inside the portal their compounder deployed. PharmacyLive advertises auto-mapped prescription fields and default SIGs, but pre-submit validation depth varies by pharmacy configuration. Each role shares one constraint: they cannot change catalog, pricing, or UX without the deploying pharmacy — which is the core difference from clinic-owned ordering.
