DOSIS Systems
— Reallocate
Your Staff Efforts
by Automating
Manual Processes
DOSIS Systems offers an
autonomous workflow that
partners with pharmacies to
ensure improved efficiency,
productivity, and bottom-line
by automating over 75% of
their production.
We automate the portions of your pharmacy that don’t
require human contact including processing scripts from
your PMS, printing labels, adjusting inventory, and sending
scripts to autonomous blister card filling.
DOSIS Systems helps reallocate pharmacy efforts by looking
at total production volume and what could be offset by
integrated software and automated filling.

Patient-First Focus Leads to Growth
Dottie Farfone, Chief Clinical Pharmacist, and Scott Farfone, Chief Operations Ofcer,
achieved 100% compliance on their first application to URAC in 2015 and maintained
100% compliance during re-accreditation in 2019.
Building a new pharmacy operation from the
ground up
Dottie and Scott Farfone started Dottie’s Pharmacy
in Charleston, SC in 2013, leveraging his business
experience and her pharmacy background. At first, it
was just the two of them, with Scott as technician and
Director of Business Operations and Dottie as Chief
Clinical Pharmacist. They quickly built their client base
up by setting regular goals – first 10 patients, then
25, then 75, and so on. Their strategy worked. Today
Dottie’s Pharmacy has been licensed from Virginia to
Florida. Their team of technicians, along with seven
full-time and part-time pharmacists, fill over 400
prescriptions a day.
It wasn’t long before they decided to add a specialty
focus to their business. “We knew we would need a
niche to grow and thrive,” says Scott. “The doctors we
were working with were asking us to look into carrying
specialty medications,” adds Dottie. Moving into
specialty pharmacy just made sense. They also knew
to be successful in the space, they would need their
URAC accreditation, which is what ultimately led them
to investigate temperature monitoring solutions.
