EinsteinRx ties together Wellgistics Hub, HubRx AI, and a 6,500+ pharmacy network to streamline prescription management
Wellgistics Health (NASDAQ: WGRX) announced EinsteinRx - a prescription management solution that connects physicians, pharmacies, manufacturers, and payers through one integrated platform. The company is positioning this stack as the "Pharmacy IT Railroad," with the goal of executing PharmacyChain smart contracts that standardize and automate key steps across the $634 billion U.S. prescription drug market.
For management teams, the pitch is clear: combine software and physical distribution to reduce friction, improve adherence, and lower total cost of therapy - without forcing a single channel or vendor.
What launched
EinsteinRx unifies data and workflows from prescribing to pickup or delivery. It integrates drug manufacturing data, insurance information, patient records, nutritional recommendations, and fulfillment status into a single flow that returns real-time visibility to the physician and payer.
It's built to plug into in-house pharmacies or Wellgistics' network of 6,500+ independent pharmacies, alongside 200+ manufacturers. The company expects to onboard new payer clients in Q4 2025.
Why it matters to executives
- Cost control: Surfaces the most suitable medication at the best out-of-pocket price for the patient while supporting plan-level strategy.
- Speed to therapy: Automated eligibility and prior authorization via HubRx AI reduce delays that drive abandonment.
- Adherence and safety: Minimizes potential drug-drug interactions and confirms fill status back to the prescriber for follow-up.
- Channel flexibility: Use your in-house pharmacy, the independent network, or direct-to-patient delivery - all in one system.
- Operational clarity: Close the loop from script to fulfillment with data that can feed care management and reporting.
How the stack fits together
- Wellgistics Hub (formerly DelivMeds): Digital prescription routing, wholesale distribution, and direct-to-patient logistics.
- HubRx AI: Hub services for eligibility, onboarding, adherence support, prior authorization, and cash-pay fulfillment.
- EinsteinRx: The orchestration layer that integrates clinical, financial, and operational data between physician, pharmacy, manufacturer, and payer.
What the experience looks like
- Physician prescribes; EinsteinRx checks coverage, flags potential interactions, and recommends an optimal path (pharmacy location or delivery).
- Patient sees best out-of-pocket option and can receive nutritional recommendations to support therapy.
- Pharmacy fulfills through in-house operations or the 6,500+ network; status is returned to the prescriber to monitor adherence.
- Manufacturers and payers gain insight into access, adherence, and program performance.
The "Pharmacy IT Railroad" and smart contracts
Wellgistics describes its infrastructure as a standardized track for data and logistics. With EinsteinRx in place, the company intends to codify PharmacyChain smart contracts - predefined rules that help ensure the right data moves to the right stakeholder at the right time, and that operational steps happen in the intended order.
This isn't about adding more portals. It's about reducing handoffs and making commitments between parties executable and auditable across software and physical distribution.
Who should put this on the roadmap
- Self-insured employers, GPOs, and HMOs targeting lower total cost of care with better adherence and fewer delays.
- Health systems seeking tighter EHR-to-pharmacy integration with transparency across in-house and external networks.
- Manufacturers needing consistent patient support, pull-through, and field visibility without adding complexity.
- Independent pharmacies looking to plug into payer programs and manufacturer partnerships without losing autonomy.
Timeline and scale
Wellgistics plans to begin onboarding payer clients in Q4 2025. The company currently connects 6,500+ pharmacies and 200+ manufacturers and serves as a PBM-agnostic option for distribution, routing, delivery, and AI-enabled hub services.
Executive checklist for due diligence
- Integration: EHR, ePrescribe, claims/EDI, and data export capabilities to your analytics stack.
- Governance: Data ownership, audit trails, and controls for smart contract rules and overrides.
- Compliance: HIPAA, security posture, and third-party attestations; confirm BAAs and data retention policies.
- Performance: SLA for eligibility, PA turnaround, fill time, and delivery; uptime and incident response.
- Outcomes: Baselines and targets for adherence, time-to-fill, abandonment, and total episode cost.
- Change management: Provider onboarding, patient communications, and pharmacy network enablement.
Leadership perspective
"We have completed the difficult task of coding the various parts of our 'Pharmacy IT Railroad' that will allow optimized data flow between the key stakeholders in a manner that is optimized for pharmacy best practices," said Prashant Patel, RPh, President & Interim-CEO of Wellgistics. "EinsteinRx ensures that the various loops in the pharmaceutical distribution process are closed."
He added, "By bringing these key ingredients into one seamless solution with EinsteinRx, we now have the infrastructure needed that will allow us to codify the smart contracts underlying PharmacyChain."
