Pharmacists of the MZ generation, who incorporate IT technology into pharmacy management, are facing a series of challenges. Pharmacists familiar with IT are developing services that will help manage pharmacies and even introducing app services for pharmacists and the general public.
The apps developed by pharmacists themselves have a good market response because they have the advantage of being able to reflect the demand of the field by using them directly at pharmacies. The pill count app "PhilEye", launched by the pharmaceutical director in his 30s in 2020, also succeeded in settling the market.
Pharmacist Cho Sung-hoon (39, Chung-Ang University), who runs a Family Pharmacy in front of Gil Hospital in Incheon, recently launched a "Pharmaceutical Manager" app that includes the number of pills, identification, and inventory (return) management services.
It differs from the existing Pil-Eye in that if you take a picture of the medicine on your phone, you can check the number and what kind of medicine it is.
Pharmacist Cho said, "I felt that errors or inefficiency occurred while preparing at pharmacies and conducting visual inspections. We developed a service that allows us to repair drugs with artificial intelligence object recognition technology," adding, "In the second half of the year, we will be able to use the function to identify which drug it is if we take a picture."
There were cases where patients did not know what kind of drug it was while working as a multi-pharmaceutical management pharmacist, but not only pharmacists but also the general public can check what kind of drug it is with just a picture.
Additionally, it added a pharmacy inventory management service that can be done through an app. It is now possible to manage inventory and return medicine that were handwritten or managed with computer files through the app.
"When I record inventory or return lists, I write them down in my notebook or organize them in Excel. When I search for drugs on the app, I get specification information and drug prices. It can be conveniently managed by simply entering the inventory quantity. It is easy because if you take a picture of not only the finished product but also the individual pieces, the quantity is entered. When I interviewed pharmacists around me, I added them because there was a demand for services for inventory management," he said.
Pharmacist Cho said, "I was interested in artificial intelligence and IT, so I planned the app for the first time, and now I have employees including developers. I also received a technology transfer from the Korea Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute," adding, "It was released first by Android this month, and it will be registered as soon as the iPhone finishes the screening. It is a free service for pharmacies, so I hope many pharmacists will use it and get help."
Pharmacist Cho established the 'JNJ Tech' corporation to develop and release the app. On the 17th of this month, two years after the development began in 2021, the 'Pharmaceutical Manager' was officially released.
There is also a "Mosigo" service developed by pharmacist Kim Jeong-do (35, Kangwon National University College of Pharmacy). The service was launched in the second half of last year by pharmacist Kim Jeong-do. It is the first attempt in Korea. Sosigo serves as a platform to connect partner pharmacists who have signed freelance contracts with patients who need to be accompanied by hospitals.
In addition, Pharmacist Kim Tae-hyung (35, Sungkyunkwan University College of Pharmacy), the representative of SoulMedi, launched a web service called Soul in 2020 that can be used to promote pharmacies. It has operated a drug search dot service that visits pharmacies to purchase medicines and guides safe drug use.
