TORONTO, Oct. 16, 2018 /CNW Telbec/ - McKesson Canada today announced a new agreement with Canada Health Infoway to offer PrescribeIT™, Canada's only national not-for-profit electronic prescribing service, to its pharmacy network.
"Today's customer wants a seamless digital experience that enhances convenience, while protecting the privacy and security of their health information," said Domenic Pilla, CEO, McKesson Canada. "PrescribeIT™ delivers on that promise. We are pleased to be one of the first national pharmaceutical health providers in Canada to support the expansion of its digital offerings, so we can continue to improve our customer experience."
