Automate pharmacy purchasing with the SureCost API

Look up drugs by NDC, build and review order worksheets with each pharmacy's formulary and substitution rules applied, and follow the resulting purchase orders through shipment and receipt, from your own system.

What you can build

Drug lookup by NDC

Resolve one NDC or a batch to the drug SureCost knows, in the dashed and undashed formats pharmacy systems use, with each result reported per NDC.

Order worksheets

Dry-run an order to see what would land and why a line would not, then create, replace, update or discard draft worksheets. Formulary and substitution rules are applied server-side.

Purchase orders

Follow each order through its lifecycle: the vendor's acknowledgement, advance ship notices and receiving history, including when the vendor supplies a different drug than the one ordered.

Departments

List the departments your integration may order for, scoped to what the pharmacy has granted.

Who it is for

Pharmacy and health-system software, automation and dispensing vendors, and partners that need to place and track purchasing on behalf of SureCost customers.

Getting access

  1. Talk to us. Tell us who you are integrating for and what you need to do.
  2. Get credentials. SureCost issues integration credentials for the pharmacies you work with, and a sign-in for this portal's documentation and API reference.
  3. Build and test. Integrate against the test environment, then go live in production with the same API.

Calls use short-lived bearer tokens over HTTPS, and every request is limited to the pharmacies and departments your integration has been granted.
