DOC2US has been awarded two sets of the Malaysian Book of Records (MBOR) accolades for the “First Digital Signature Electronic Prescription System” and the “Most Number of Digitally Signed Electronic Prescription In A Year.”
DOC2US is the first in Malaysia to raise the standard in remote medication prescribing and dispensing by adopting the MSC-accredited Trustgate-powered Digital Signature system as required by the Ministry of Health and in compliance with the Digital Signature Act 1997 and Poisons Act 1952 back in January last year.
“We are truly humbled and honoured with the recognition,” DOC2US CEO Dr Raymond Choy said in a statement.
“When we launched in 2017, we only managed to record about 500 e-prescriptions generated by our online doctors.
“There was steady growth year-on-year, however, it was during the pandemic outbreak that we saw a steep adoption and utilisation of online consultation services.
“To date, DOC2US has generated and processed more than 400,000 e-prescriptions with an average one electronic prescription processed every one minute.”
The company is also projected to administer close to 40,000 doses a day in helping Malaysia’s race in achieving herd immunity.
The subsequent implementation of the Movement Control Orders in the country prompted the company’s second MBOR award of signing a total of 216,458 electronic prescriptions from last June to this May, he added.
