DocStation’s AI-Powered Vaccine Billing Solution: Game-Changer for Pharmacy Revenue This Flu Season
With flu season approaching and prescription margins continuing to shrink, independent and regional pharmacies are facing unprecedented pressure to find new revenue streams. DocStation’s innovative pharmacy software has just launched a revolutionary vaccine billing solution that could transform how pharmacies approach medical billing—and early results are already exceeding expectations.
This comprehensive pharmacy software platform combines AI-powered automation with seamless integration, making it easier than ever for pharmacies to capture revenue from clinical services while maintaining their existing workflows.
132% More Revenue Per Vaccine Claim: The Medical Billing Software Advantage
DocStation’s new AI-powered vaccine billing solution enables pharmacies to bill vaccines and clinical services directly to the medical benefit instead of traditional pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs). This advanced pharmacy software automatically routes claims to maximize reimbursement, with pharmacies earning up to 132% more per claim compared to standard PBM billing.
“It was really quick. Within a few days we were set up. One of our stores has already had enough paid claims and additional profit to cover DocStation subscription fees for the next 20 months,” shared Spencer Hodges, PharmD & Vice President at Boone Drug in North Carolina. “And that’s just a handful of claims. We’re not even into flu season yet.”
Why Pharmacies Are Making the Switch from PBM to Medical Billing
The PBM Problem
Pharmacy benefit managers have long controlled reimbursement rates for vaccine claims, often resulting in razor-thin margins for pharmacies. With no meaningful PBM reform legislation on the horizon, pharmacies are seeking alternative pathways to fair compensation.
The Medical Billing Software Solution
By leveraging DocStation’s pharmacy software to bill vaccines to the medical benefit, pharmacies can:
- Capture significantly higher reimbursement rates
- Reduce dependency on PBM networks
- Generate net new revenue from services already being provided
- Improve cash flow with faster claim processing
