Clinical+ FAQs

RedSail Technologies continues to enhance patient engagement through Clinical+, a next-generation platform improving adherence, affordability, and clinical communication.

Clinical+ triggers within your PMS workflow to surface opportunities to share patient education and adherence support. Your pharmacy can receive invoice credits for participating in eligible programs (amount varies per program/campaign). For campaigns that involve patient messaging, if the patient is not enrolled in text messages, it will send an email. If the patient does not have an email address on file, it may print a handout to be given to the patient. 

Watch a quick 15-min overview of Clinical+ and how it works in your pharmacy, led by pharmacist coach Nicole Pezzino, PharmD.


Read on for answers to questions about Clinical+ and how it supports your pharmacy.

What is Clinical+?

Clinical+ is a PMS-integrated platform that enables real-time prescription engagement and personalized outreach to patients. It helps patients begin and stay on therapy by supporting pharmacies with:

  • Real-time prescription notifications: Messages sent to patients with prescription, pharmacy, and medication education details
  • Educational messaging: SMS-based, emailed, or printed educational content to keep patients informed
  • Medication assistance and adherence support: Personalized reminders and support programs
Why was Clinical+ developed?

RedSail is always working to improve the tools you use to encourage patient adherence and health. Earlier programs relied on software functionality that limited their flexibility and required more complex processes. The launch of Clinical+ is another step toward making patient engagement and adherence efforts easier and more transparent for your pharmacy.

How does Clinical+ communicate with patients?

Clinical+ uses its software to send patient communication via one of several options:

  • Text Messages – Sent using your pharmacy’s phone number (at no cost). Note for PrimeRx customers:  The phone number +1-318-891-2366 will be used to send the text at no cost to your pharmacy.
  • Emails – Used if the patient isn’t enrolled in text messaging
  • Printed Materials – Automatically print if the patient has neither text nor email on file
  • Direct Pharmacist Conversations – Prompts at the POS for patient conversation
  • Future Options – RxLocal app notifications

Messages are triggered for auto send at specific points in your pharmacy workflow depending on the program, and all activity is stored in your software’s message center.

What if my pharmacy has turned off SMS?

Patient texting will still occur. Rather than your pharmacy’s phone number, an alternate number (+1-318-891-2366) will be used to send the text at no cost to your pharmacy. Note that the message and any patient response will NOT sync to your software’s message center.

Can a patient restart text messages after opting out?

Yes. To restart after having previously sent a STOP reply, the patient should text the number that they received the message from with START, YES, or UNSTOP.

What is required from my pharmacy?

There are no requirements to participate in Clinical+. Pharmacy staff simply acts on the suggested action for a patient when it displays via pop-up in the PMS. For patient messaging operating through auto send functionality, no action is required, but invoice credits may still be generated for the pharmacy. 

To further manage participation, you can click through and log into the Clinical+ portal to see a list of campaigns and what their alerts look like, as well as the ability to opt out specific patients from messaging.

Who has access to the Clinical+ portal? What is the login?

PioneerRx customers: Staff designated as pharmacist-in-charge, decision-maker, clinical contact, or primary contact assigned to an NPI may log into the portal using their software username and password.

All other customers: Please use this form to request that a Clinical+ portal login be created for you. Please allow 1-2 business days for a reply.

The user will receive an email from ‘no-reply@redsailapp.com’ with a link to set their password. The link expires 12 hours after it is sent. Note that if the link expires, the user can go to ‘portal.clinicalplus.net’ and select ‘Reset password’ using the same email the link was sent to.

What are the benefits to pharmacies?
  • Invoice credits for participating in eligible programs
  • Increases adherence and patient retention
  • Enables easier patient engagement and a wider variety of patient support messages
  • Integrates with your PMS and all messages will be in your software’s message center (or call out queue for QS/1 customers)
  • Allows pharmacy staff to manage the opt out of patients from messaging
  • Allows pharmacy staff to manage the opt out of programs/campaigns
  • Supports adherence via automated, documented communication
How much does Clinical+ cost?

There is no charge to pharmacies to use Clinical+. For SMS messages initiated through Clinical+, there is no charge. Some programs that run through Clinical+ offer your pharmacy reimbursement via invoice credits.

What types of programs/campaigns are available through Clinical+?

The campaigns available through Clinical+ may address the following areas and more:

  • Adherence (for example, refill reminders, late refill reminders, lapsed patients)
  • Therapeutic (patient support services, formulary guidance, limited distribution drugs, alternative options)
  • OTC intervention
  • Copay (for example, patient messaging about automated vouchers)
How do I turn on this program at my pharmacy?

These programs will turn on automatically for your pharmacy with no action needed by your team.

What if my pharmacy doesn’t want to participate in a program?

Pharmacies can opt out of specific campaigns or all campaigns via the Clinical+ portal. Additionally, you can opt out specific patients from messaging.

What about Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) compliance?

RedSail is actively reviewing and updating TCPA guidelines to ensure full compliance with automated messaging regulations.
