Does Cortico replace how doctors write prescriptions?

No. Providers prescribe exactly as they do today inside the EMR. Cortico automates the surrounding steps: pharmacy capture, refill routing, and patient communication.

How does Cortico reduce prescription-related phone calls?

By capturing the patient's pharmacy at booking and syncing it to the chart, Cortico removes the most common reason staff and pharmacies call back. Refill requests can also be routed automatically to the clinic.

Which EMRs does prescription automation work with?

Cortico integrates with most major EMRs, including OSCAR and Accuro, and syncs pharmacy and refill information directly into the patient record.

Can patients request refills through Cortico?

Yes. Pharmacy referral links route patients back to your clinic for renewals, and refill follow-ups can be automated so patients are reminded until the task is complete.

Prescription Automation Software for Medical Clinics

Allow patients to manage their prescriptions while saving your team time.

Simplify prescription management

Cortico streamlines the prescription process for patients, doctors, and staff.

Patients choose their preferred pharmacy or delivery option during appointment booking
Pharmacy details sync directly to the EMR, no extra steps required
Doctors can send prescriptions without manually entering pharmacy information

Pharmacy preference is one of the most common reasons a prescription turns into a phone call. Cortico moves that step to the front: patients choose their pharmacy or a delivery option while they book, and the detail flows straight into the EMR. The provider writes the script with the pharmacy already attached — no lookup, no callback, no sticky note.

Ensure continuity of care

Keep patients on track with seamless communication between pharmacies and your clinic.

Automate prescription refills with pharmacy referral links
Pharmacies can refer patients back to your clinic for refills

Refills are predictable work, and predictable work should be automated. Cortico can attach pharmacy referral links so patients are routed back to your clinic for renewals instead of falling through the cracks, keeping continuity of care intact without adding to the front desk's call volume.

Cut the Pharmacy Phone Tag

Most prescription delays are communication delays. Cortico removes the back-and-forth.

Pharmacy captured once, at booking, not chased later
Fewer inbound calls and faxes about prescription logistics
Patients know their script is going to the right place
Renewal requests route back to the clinic automatically

When pharmacy details are captured at booking and synced to the chart, your team stops fielding "which pharmacy?" calls and faxes. Combined with fax auto-triage for incoming pharmacy requests, the whole renewal loop gets shorter — for staff and for patients.

Prescription Workflows That Fit Your EMR

Cortico adds automation around your existing prescribing workflow instead of replacing it.

No change to how clinicians prescribe
Pharmacy and refill data synced to OSCAR, Accuro, and other major EMRs
Notifications sent to patients by SMS or email
Refill follow-ups can be automated as EMR tasks

Providers keep writing prescriptions exactly as they do today. Cortico's role is the surrounding logistics — pharmacy capture, refill routing, and patient notification — and all of it is anchored to the EMR record so nothing lives in a separate system. It works alongside EMR task automation so refill follow-ups can be triggered automatically.

Part of a Connected Clinic Workflow

Prescription automation works with the rest of Cortico's patient automation suite.

Pairs with telemedicine so virtual visits end with a script in hand
Works with secure patient messaging to confirm prescription details
Connects to patient scheduling software for refill-appointment booking
Supports text-based care for quick refill visits

A prescription is usually the last step of a visit, so it should connect to everything before it. Cortico ties prescribing into booking, virtual visits, and messaging so the patient experience stays continuous.
