The 2027 AIMS mandate
Make money from the platform Ontario forces you to buy. The 2027 mandate, finally on the right side of your ledger.
Ontario requires every accredited pharmacy to run a medication-incident platform on January 1, 2027. For every other vendor, that is the whole product — a cost you carry. AgileRx meets the same published criteria, then turns the same iPad into your MedsCheck, minor-ailment, vaccination and injection counter, and guards every claim against the clawback. The one purchase you cannot avoid, finally doing real work.
What you’re losing
What you pay to stop it

Seven modules. One clinical day.
Teal earns. Blue protects. Every module is built against a published fee schedule or a published standard — the numbers on these cards are the ministry’s and the College’s, not ours.

Finds every eligible patient, runs the review on the ministry forms, and bills it without clawback risk.

Ontario publishes what it pays.
Every figure below is a line in the Ontario Drug Programs Reference Manual or an Executive Officer Notice. None of it is a projection, and none of it is ours. AgileRx finds the eligible patient, runs the encounter on the ministry forms, and files the claim under the right code.

The Pharmacy Adult Vaccine Bundle opened on July 1, 2026 with no published administration fee. AgileRx holds those claims and releases them the day a fee is announced — it does not guess a number, and it will not let you submit into the dark.
Ontario funds vaccine administration only. It pays nothing for a B12, a Depo-Provera or a long-acting antipsychotic injection, while British Columbia pays $11.41 for the same act. Those visits run as a private service — and they are the most reliable recurring appointment in the store.
Fees and PINs: Ontario Drug Programs Reference Manual; Executive Officer Notices (UIIP, COVID-19, minor ailments expansion). Claims volume: Ontario minor ailments, 2023–24.
And then there is the law
The one platform you are forced to buy.
Everything above, you earn whether the rules change or not. But they did change. From January 1, 2027 the College’s supplemental standard makes a medication incident platform a condition of accreditation — every Ontario pharmacy has to own one. The only question left is whether it also runs your MedsCheck and defends your claims. For a single-purpose incident tool, the answer is no.
- Who it binds
- Every accredited pharmacy in Ontario — roughly 4,500+ of them — on the same day. There is no phase-in by store count and no exemption for a quiet dispensary.
- What it requires
- A platform that meets OCP’s published Platform Criteria, captures the 15 mandatory fields for a medication incident (14 for a near miss, which never reached the patient), and uploads the anonymous record to the National Incident Data Repository daily.
- What it pays
- Nothing. Incident reporting is a cost line with no fee code behind it. Which makes the only interesting question this one: what else can the platform you are forced to buy actually do?
- Where AgileRx sits
- Built directly to the published OCP Platform Criteria. OCP does not certify, approve or endorse any platform — nobody can honestly tell you otherwise, and we won’t.
No rip and replace
It runs beside your dispensing system. It does not replace it.
Nobody is pulling out the software that fills prescriptions, and no pharmacy team will trade a dispensing workflow they know for a promise from a vendor. So AgileRx never asks them to. Your dispensing system keeps the dispensing record. AgileRx keeps the clinical record, the claim, and the incident file.
It works with no integration at all
Assisted worklist mode is the default, not the fallback. A pharmacist works the AgileRx worklist on an iPad while the dispensing system carries on untouched. No adapter, no data migration, no go-live weekend, no downtime you have to explain to a line of patients.
Designed to integrate with Fillware
The adapter is on the roadmap, not in the box — we will not tell you it is finished when it is not. When it lands, patient and medication context flows in on its own. Until it does, nothing about AgileRx is waiting on it.
iPad-first, because the encounter is not at the fill counter
A MedsCheck happens in the consultation room. An assessment happens across a counter from a patient who is standing up. An injection happens at the chair. The software goes where the clinical service actually happens.
See it against your own numbers.
Thirty minutes, on your services and your volumes. We will show you the MedsCheck eligibility engine, what a minor ailment assessment looks like on the counter, and the AIMS module against the published criteria.
