What ShortageWatch does

Flags a drug that has gone into national short supply the moment a prescription calls for it, and hands the prescriber the hospital’s own pre-approved substitute instead of a dispensing delay discovered at the counter.

What it writes

Same patient record as every other app — nothing is copied into a silo. Data class: No PHI.

What it does not do

It does not substitute a medicine automatically — the prescriber approves the swap; this only surfaces that one is needed.

Every app page carries this section. A listing with only benefits is an advertisement.
