BOSTON, September 23, 2026 – epocrates, a leading digital platform for clinicians, today announced a multi-year strategic partnership with ScriptSave, a health tech and pharmacy savings company that has been making healthcare more affordable for 30 years, to bring dynamic prescription drug pricing and savings information directly into clinicians' existing workflow. By pairing epocrates' trusted clinical insights with ScriptSave’s pricing intelligence, the collaboration enables healthcare providers to make informed treatment decisions and hold conversations with patients before prescriptions are written.

Medication cost remains a critical barrier to treatment adherence, with 36% of patients stating that having a clearer understanding of pricing prior to pick up is a significant benefit (source). This partnership aims to reflect pricing updates in real-time, giving clinicians access to current cost information at the point of care and reducing the risk of patients leaving prescriptions unfilled due to cost. The solution also provides detailed insight into pricing across different medication forms, highlights available cost-saving opportunities, and delivers pricing intelligence natively within existing drug content. This allows clinicians to have more informed conversations with patients before prescriptions are written.

“Preventing surprises and sticker shock at the pharmacy are key to addressing medication adherence,” said Marcus Sredzinski, Group President ScriptSave/MedImpact. “By combining ScriptSave's drug pricing intelligence and epocrates' clinical workflow, we empower clinicians to inform patients about cost and alternatives right at the moment of prescribing.”

Building on epocrates’ longstanding role as a trusted point-of-care resource, the partnership will make pricing and savings information a more seamless part of the prescribing experience. With clearer visibility into patients’ potential costs, clinicians can more readily identify affordable options and make clinically appropriate prescription adjustments that support medication access and adherence.

"At epocrates, we are deeply committed to supporting clinicians, which includes reducing cost-related barriers that can stand between patients and their treatment,” said David Minkin, President and General Manager of epocrates. “By investing directly in clinician workflows, we are embedding real-time pricing intelligence into the point-of-care tools providers already rely on every day. This initial launch is the first step in a long-term partnership vision with ScriptSave to continually expand affordability capabilities and support better prescribing decisions."

This initial rollout establishes the foundation for an ongoing, multi-year strategic partnership. Future releases will deliver deeper workflow integrations, faster data refresh cycles, direct links to patient savings resources, and streamlined access to coupons and discount programs directly within epocrates.
