Pharmacy staff spend excessive time explaining insurance complexities and copay issues to frustrated patients who blame the pharmacy for insurance restrictions.

Workarounds Described

• Verbally explaining insurance restrictions to each frustrated patient at the counter
• Manually checking formularies and copays for patients who don't understand their coverage

Implied Software Gaps

• Real-time insurance transparency tool that shows patients their exact formulary status before pharmacy visits
• Automated copay comparison system that explains why prices differ across pharmacies
