Maria’s story

Maria lives with her partner Charlie and have been together for over 5 years. Unfortunately Charlie has become ill and is not able to pickup his medications.

Maria would like to help her partner but is worried that since they are not married the pharmacy would not allow for her to pick up Charlie’s medications.

Maria needs a way to access Charlie’s medications…

What if…

A person like Maria could request access to another person’s prescriptions like Charlie. Charlie would need to approve the request through CVS pharmacy app. Once approved Maria could go to the app and see all of Charlie’s prescriptions. She could see which ones were his and refill them for Charlie.

Qualitative testing & learnings

Pros

  • All testers were interested in the concept

  • Legal guardians enjoyed that they would see their children’s prescription

  • They were interested in using the scan pill bottle feature rather than filling in a form 

Cons

  • Testers thought the process was too easy to get a child's prescriptions

  • Customers were looking for reassurance that CVS was taking proper measures to ensure safety
