Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses are provided for supporting barcoded service requests and responses. The systems, methods, and apparatuses can support receiving, from a pharmacy computer, a claim request that identifies at least a patient and a prescribed product; determining, based upon the claim request, that a service request is available, the service request indicating an opportunity for one or more services to be provided by the pharmacy to the patient; storing claim information in association with a bar code, the claim information including information from the claim request, the bar code associated with the service request; automatically directing a delivery of the service request to the pharmacy, the service request including the bar code; and receiving a response to the service request, wherein the response includes the bar code, where the bar code is utilized, at least in part, to obtain at least a portion of the claim information for documentation of the one or more provided services.
