Brand New Feature: Simplify Your Patient Visit & Checkout Process with Virtual Dispensing

The new Well World® Virtual Dispensing feature simplifies your patient visits and makes sure that your patients are getting the supplements you recommend to optimize their health – all while increasing your practice revenue!

Increase Your Supplement Revenue

Now you can accept patient payments for supplements and fees for lifestyle and group programs during in-practice or virtual patient visits — and Designs for HealthTM will dropship your recommended products to your patients for you.

Improve Patient Compliance

With this new feature, you can also charge for and provide supplements from your own inventory and set them up in Well World to follow your guidance and track progress.

Patients can use the Well World app to track their supplement intake. You can set up dosage recommendations in Well World, and patients will get automatic reminders through the app.

Reduce Your Overhead Costs

You can use Virtual Dispensing to process patient supplement orders on the spot during their visit without stocking products in your office.

You can also use Virtual Dispensing if you want to stock just your Designs for Health favorites and still have access to the complete catalog of available Designs for Health supplements. The best part is that you earn the same generous commissions as your other Designs for Health patient-direct sales channels!

Include Supplements in Your Overall Program Price

Are you charging a fee for services or programs and then asking patients to purchase supplements separately? Now you can accept payment upfront and have the supplements dropshipped to your participants.

It’s an easier one-step purchase process that will increase patient compliance, as well as the overall revenue and profitability of your services and programs.

How it Works for Individual Patients

1. Assign your patient a plan following the usual steps in Well World.
To watch a how-to video click here.

2. When assigning supplements, the practitioner may turn on the new “In-Practice Purchase” toggle button, to indicate the patient will be paying the practitioner directly for their supplements.

3. The practitioner chooses from the In-Practice Purchase Options – ship to the patient or provide from the practitioner’s in-practice inventory.

4. A practitioner may complete the supplement purchase and dropship at the time of the patient visit or, at a more convenient time for you or your staff. If a Virtual Dispensing dropship order has not been completed, it will appear as a Pending Dropship Order. See How to Complete Pending Dropship Orders below.

How it Works for Groups
