Project Overview
SaveRx approached us with a mission to create a custom software solution that would streamline access to discounted medications. The goal was to build a user-friendly, scalable, and secure platform where consumers could search for medications, compare prices, and locate participating pharmacies effortlessly.
We developed a custom web and mobile application that integrates with multiple pharmacy networks, applies real-time discount calculations, and provides a seamless user experience. The result is an intuitive and highly efficient platform that helps users save on medication costs while improving accessibility to essential healthcare products.
Challenges
Real-Time Price Comparison
Pharmacy drug prices fluctuate based on location, time, and demand. The challenge was to develop a robust system that could fetch and display real-time drug prices across thousands of pharmacies.
Multi-Channel Coupon Distribution
To accommodate different user preferences, the platform needed to support coupon distribution via multiple formats (print, SMS, and email) while ensuring reliable delivery and tracking.
Scalability & Performance Optimization
With thousands of users searching for prescription discounts daily, the system required a highly scalable architecture that could handle concurrent user requests without lag.
Regulatory Compliance & Security
Since the platform deals with sensitive health information, compliance with HIPAA and other data protection regulations was critical.
User-Friendly Interface
The search functionality had to be simple yet powerful, allowing users to enter a medication name and zip code to find the lowest prices near them.
Our Approach
We approached this project with a strategic roadmap, ensuring every element was built for performance, security, and scalability.
Advanced Drug Price Search Engine
- Implemented a real-time data aggregation system to fetch updated drug prices from partner pharmacies.
- Integrated an AI-powered pricing algorithm that compares prices across multiple locations.
- Developed a zip code-based search functionality to provide hyper-local drug price comparisons.
Multi-Channel Prescription Discount Delivery
- Built an automated system for generating and distributing Rx discount coupons via email, SMS, and print.
- Implemented QR code-enabled coupons for faster scanning at pharmacies.
- Developed a coupon tracking dashboard for users to monitor redeemed discounts.
Scalable Cloud-Based Architecture
- Deployed the platform on AWS Cloud, ensuring high availability and fault tolerance.
- Implemented load balancing and caching mechanisms to handle peak traffic efficiently.
- Used microservices architecture to ensure modularity and flexibility for future expansions.
Data Security & Regulatory Compliance
- Implemented HIPAA-compliant encryption to protect user data.
- Integrated secure API connections with pharmacy networks to prevent data breaches.
- Conducted regular security audits and penetration testing to maintain compliance.
User-Centric Interface Design
- Developed a mobile-responsive website with an intuitive UI/UX for easy navigation.
- Implemented an autocomplete search feature for faster drug searches.
