What prompted your company to get LegitScript-certified?
LegitScript’s Healthcare Merchant Certification is a benchmark in the digital health space. It’s the single most important certification to have and is recognized by
companies in a multitude of segments in the digital health network.
Do you think there is still a stigma for some about accessing healthcare online?
Even with all the success the telemedicine sector has seen in the last few years, there is still a stigma surrounding accessing healthcare online. Having the appropriate
accreditations along with certifications like LegitScript helps put consumers’ minds at ease and lets them know we’re a company they can trust.
But despite any reservations, telehealth is still rapidly growing.
Telemedicine has grown exponentially in the last few years as consumers become more aware of the convenience that it offers. We see telemedicine growing more and more every year because it helps solve two of the biggest challenges we face in the healthcare sector: affordability and accessibility.
As the industry grows, so does competition. How do you reach prospective partners to grow your business?
We’re a B2B enterprise solution, and we primarily run ads on Google and LinkedIn. Advertising is key to the growth of our business, and LegitScript certification unlocks our ability to advertise on many major internet platforms.
How was the certification process for you? Did LegitScript Certification help Epiq Scripts become even more epic?
The LegitScript certification process was straightforward and convenient, user-friendly, and all questions were answered appropriately by the LegitScript team. Getting certified by LegitScript has gained us credibility which in return has helped us in every area of the digital health supply chain. Whether it’s marketing, getting approvals for credit card processing, or vendor partnerships and collaborations, our partners like to see that we’ve been LegitScript certified.
