MedSync
MedSync (also known as Medication Synchronization) is a pharmacy service that helps coordinate all of a patient's regular medications to be refilled on the same day each month. This system makes it easier for patients to manage their prescriptions and helps pharmacies provide better care. Instead of handling multiple refill dates throughout the month, everything is streamlined into one convenient pickup date. This approach is similar to how a subscription service works, but for medications. Other terms that might describe this concept are "med synchronization," "prescription synchronization," or "medication alignment program."
