Ask patients what medications they are taking without calling.
Patient encounter multiple care points. Each visit starts with the same question: is this list still right? ConfirmMyMeds asks that question when pharmacies and clinics send an inquiry outside the patient portal, and patients can confirm when they are next to their medications.
Works outside the EHR portal
Never writes to your EHR
Nobody owns the whole list. The patient carries the whole list.
The specialist manages three medications. The PCP reviews seven in two minutes. The pharmacist fills nine and sees every refill — but not what's happening at the other four providers. Each knows their piece — none reliably knows the rest. Fewer than half of US primary care doctors get medication updates from specialists, and prescriber count is the strongest predictor of dangerous drug combinations in elderly patients.
More data won't fix this. Even where an EHR is linked directly to pharmacy dispensing, 60% of patients still have discrepancies — because stopped medications and over-the-counter products are invisible to every feed. The patient is the only source for either one, and the only person who sees all fourteen medications from all five providers, every day. ConfirmMyMeds gives them a structured way to share that.
Patients trust their PCP's list. They're less sure about their pharmacist's — or anyone else's.
Nearly all patients have at least some confidence their providers know their medications — but the strength of that confidence tells a different story. 62% of patients strongly trust their primary provider's grasp of their medications; for every other provider they see, that drops to 46%. Left to reconcile conflicting information on their own, patients end up making clinical judgments outside the clinical setting. Asking them to confirm their medications closes that gap, and shows them their provider cared enough to ask. Trust flows in both directions.

We don't replace your medication list. We show you where your patient stands with it.
What ConfirmMyMeds does
- Reads or imports your current medication list — through your EHR's standardized, federally required data-exchange interfaces, or a file export where that's not available (every pharmacy today).
- Sends the patient a secure link before they're due in — appointment or fill — no portal account, no app, no new password.
- Returns what they confirmed, what they flagged, and what they added — timestamped and attributed to the person who answered.
What ConfirmMyMeds does not do
- Write to your EHR or pharmacy system. Not now, not silently, not ever without your team's action.
- Merge the patient's answers into your list. You see two lists with known provenance and the difference between them.
- Require a portal account, an app download, or an EHR or PMS partnership agreement for the core read.
- Replace clinical judgment. The patient flags. You decide.

Being asked is what builds the trust
Patients turn out to be reliable partners, not noise. When nearly 30,000 reviewed their own
visit notes, 1 in 5 found a mistake and 40% called it serious — medications among the
categories most flagged. When a pre-visit tool asked patients to raise concerns beforehand,
physicians verified 63% of what they raised as real safety issues.
Older and sicker patients — with the longest lists — were twice as
likely to report a serious error; they've simply lived with every medication on
it.
You review thousands of records; each patient reviews exactly one, with their full
attention. ConfirmMyMeds gives that attention somewhere to go before the visit — and
when a patient sees their answer taken seriously, trust runs back the other way too.
Who it's for
Pharmacists
Review only what's flagged or escalated — anticoagulants, insulin, opioids, and anything a technician wasn't sure about — instead of re-verifying every fill.
Pharmacy technicians
Handle routine confirmations yourself, and escalate anything uncertain to a pharmacist with one click — no guessing who should look at what.
Physicians
Open the visit knowing which medications are in question and which aren't — including what the patient's other providers prescribed, not just yours.
Nurses and medical assistants
Rooming shifts from reconstruction to verification. Instead of walking the whole list, you're confirming the items the patient already flagged.
Practice administrators
A timestamped, patient-attributed record of a medication review, produced without adding a step to the visit and without touching the EHR or pharmacy system.
Patients
Every provider you see, and every pharmacy you use, starts from the same confirmed list — the one you checked at home. No portal login. No app.
We're building this with a small group of founding pharmacies and clinics, not launching it at everyone.
ConfirmMyMeds is a working system, still early — we're deliberately validating it with real workflows before scaling it. If your pharmacy or clinic wants a direct hand in shaping what this becomes, let's talk.
