3 D - Digital Delivery of Drugs ?
( let us call it , " Dispenser " )
On 14th Oct , 8 lakh pharmacy stores will go on strike
to persuade Government to prohibit sale of " Prescription Drugs " by
e-Pharmacies such as 1mg.com / Zigy.com , not to speak of e-Com sites like Amazon / SnapDeal /
Flipkart etc
Reason advanced :
* Online sale puts
consumers at risk
Real reason ?
* Loss of jobs
of 4 million persons employed by 800,000 pharmacy stores
* Loss of
business worth Rs 80.000 Crores
Current legal provision :
* Drugs and
Cosmetics Act,1940 does not prohibit online sale of medicines
Govt response :
* Set up a
Committee to draft new provisions in Law to regulate online sale
My take :
* One day ,
everything will be sold online from web sites 10,000 Km away !
* There is no
way march of EVERYTHING ONLINE can be stopped or slowed
My Suggestions :
* Govt to upload
a Mobile App ( DISPENSER ? ) on Health Ministry web site
* All doctors
must download it , after proper registration / authentication
* App will get
embedded with full details of that doctor who uses it
* Doctors to
enter Patient Data in App / then enter prescribed
Drug Details
* Doctor will
SMS app data entered , to concerned patient's mobile
* Patient will
SMS entered app data to mobile of Chemist of his choice
* Chemist will
deliver the medicine to the patient with Bill Details in App
* Every action /
transaction on App , will get automatically emailed to web
Servers of
# Health Ministry
# All India Medical Association
# All
India Organization of Chemists and Druggists ( AIOCD )
# Drug Controller General of India
Advantages :
* Jobs /
business of Chemists / Druggists saved
* Great
convenience for patients / no need to visit Drug Store
* No chance of
Chemist " misinterpreting " doctor's handwriting !
* Full History
of
# Each Patient ( great benefit to Prescribing
doctors )
# Each Drug
( great benefit to Pharma Companies
)
# Each Chemist Shop ( great benefit to Govt / AIOCD / Tax Dept )
# Each Doctor
( great interest to All India Medical Association )
Of course , I have no answer for those who will oppose
my suggestion by saying :
" What if either the Patient or the Doctor or the
Chemist , does not have a Smart phone ?
"
My only answer :
For the benefit of millions , let us harness the Online
Delivery
technology
That is the only way DIGITAL INDIA can benefit the entire society
Solutions to all the problems of the World are known
Only Unknown are those dedicated persons determined to
implement !
