Description
To ease the process of refilling medications, the free text sigs received from the pharmacy can be automatically mapped to discrete prescriptions. Using automated text processing to remove extraneous information from the free text sigs and perform regular expression matching, we increased the number of sigs that are mapped to over 40,000 and improved our users’ inbox experience.
