Stop guessing your patient’s medications, start the visit with the right list.
Your patient sees multiple providers. Each visit starts with the same question: is this list still right? ConfirmMyMeds asks that question before the appointment — outside the portal, with the pill bottles in hand — so when the patient sits down, both of you already know the answer.
Works outside the EHR portal
Never writes to your EHR
Watch the product walkthrough
The same three-step flow described on How it works — EHR read, patient confirmation, clinician review. No account needed.
Nobody owns the whole list. The patient carries the whole list.
The specialist manages three medications. The PCP reviews seven in two minutes. Each clinician knows their piece — none reliably knows the rest. Fewer than half of US primary care doctors get medication updates from specialists, and the number of prescribers is the strongest predictor of dangerous drug combinations in elderly patients.
More data won’t fix this. Even where an EHR is linked directly to pharmacy dispensing, 60% of patients still have discrepancies — because stopped medications and over-the-counter products are invisible to every feed. The patient is the only source for either one, and the only person who sees all fourteen medications from all five providers, every day. ConfirmMyMeds gives them a structured way to share that.
Patients trust their PCP’s list. They’re less sure about everyone else’s.
Nearly all patients have at least some confidence their providers know their medications — but the strength of that confidence tells a different story. 62% of patients strongly trust their primary provider’s grasp of their medications; for every other provider they see, that drops to 46%. Left to reconcile conflicting information on their own, patients end up making clinical judgments outside the clinical setting. Asking them to confirm their medications closes that gap, and shows them their provider cared enough to ask. Trust flows in both directions.

We don’t replace your medication list. We show you where your patient stands with it.
What ConfirmMyMeds does
- Reads your current medication list through your EHR’s standardized, federally required data-exchange interfaces.
- Sends the patient a secure link before their appointment — no portal account, no app, no new password.
- Returns what they confirmed, what they flagged, and what they added — timestamped and attributed to the person who answered.
What ConfirmMyMeds does not do
- Write to your EHR. Not now, not silently, not ever without your clinician’s action.
- Merge the patient’s answers into your list. You see two lists with known provenance and the difference between them.
- Require a portal account, an app download, or an EHR partnership agreement for the core read.
- Replace clinical judgment. The patient flags. You decide.

Being asked is what builds the trust
The research in this area uses the language of partnership, not auditing. Pre-visit tools that have been studied describe their aim as coproducing safety with patients and families.
And patients turn out to be reliable partners. When nearly 30,000 patients reviewed their own visit notes, 1 in 5 reported finding a mistake and 40% of those considered it serious — medications among the categories most often flagged. When a pre-visit tool asked patients to raise concerns before the appointment, physician reviewers verified 63% of what patients raised as genuine safety opportunities. Patients aren’t generating noise; they’re surfacing things the record missed.
Older and sicker patients were twice as likely as younger, healthier ones to report a serious error — the patients with the longest medication lists aren’t less able to help; they’re often the most attentive readers of their own record, because they’ve lived with every medication on it.
You review thousands of records. Each patient reviews exactly one. Nobody else in the system has their whole attention on that single chart. ConfirmMyMeds gives that attention somewhere to go — before the visit, in a form your team can act on. And when a patient sees their clinic asked, and sees their answer taken seriously, the trust runs back the other way too.
Who it’s for
Physicians
Open the visit knowing which medications are in question and which aren’t —
including what the patient’s other providers prescribed, not just yours.
Nurses and medical assistants
Rooming shifts from reconstruction to verification. Instead of walking the whole list, you’re confirming the items the patient already flagged.
Practice administrators
A timestamped, patient-attributed record of a medication review, produced without
adding a step to the visit and without touching the EHR record.
Patients
Every doctor you see starts from the same confirmed list — the one you checked
at home, with your medications in front of you. No portal login. No app.
We’re building this with a small group of founding clinics, not launching it at everyone.
ConfirmMyMeds is a working system, still early, and we’re deliberately validating it with real workflows before we scale it. If your clinic wants a direct hand in shaping what this becomes, we want to talk to you.
