The Company

About

Surescripts is dedicated to giving healthcare providers secure, electronic access to prescription information that can save their patients’ lives, improve efficiency and reduce the cost of healthcare for all.
 
Surescripts operates the country’s largest electronic prescribing network. Available during emergencies or routine care, the Surescripts network is used every day by thousands of prescribers across all 50 states to electronically access prescription information and route prescriptions. The Surescripts network connects these prescribers to all of the nation’s major chain pharmacies (e.g. Walgreens, CVS/pharmacy, Rite Aid, Wal-Mart), many of the nation’s leading payers and PBMs (e.g. Aetna, CVS Caremark, Express Scripts, Medco, Wellpoint) and over 10,000 independent pharmacies nationwide.
 
Surescripts is the result of a 2008 merger between the country’s two leading health information networks: RxHub and Surescripts. RxHub was founded in 2001 by the nation’s three largest PBMs – CVS Caremark Corporation, Express Scripts, Inc. and Medco Health Solutions, Inc. Surescripts was also formed in 2001 by the National Association of Chain Drug Stores (NACDS) and the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA).

Surescripts maintains two offices, one in St. Paul and one in Alexandria.
