MediSafe 3.0 comes with a revamped UI and new features, including “automatic prescriptions” which makes it easy for doctors to send take-as directed medication instructions to patients.By sending an email to prescriptions@medisafeproject.com, doctors can invite patients to download the app pre-installed with their medications and optional information such as dosage, the doctor’s ID and how to take medications with or without food. MediSafe already gives users the ability to connect with physicians in between visits by exporting their data how and when they take their meds via email. With the new feature, physicians gain the ability to initiate contact with patients outside the office for the first time, strengthening aftercare protocols and results.
