ApteGo Case Study
Industry: Healthcare
Country: Poland
Solution: Google Maps Platform
Category: Professional Map Usage
Challenge
The creators of the ApteGo app faced the challenge of integrating a robust mapping solution into their platform. Their aim was to enable users to effortlessly locate nearby pharmacies offering the prescribed medication, ensuring a seamless and efficient experience for patients.
Solution
Seamless Integration of Google Maps Platform into ApteGo
By incorporating the Google Maps Platform into the ApteGo app, patients gain access to a comprehensive map interface displaying nearby pharmacies and their available stock of medical supplies. This integration facilitates quick and convenient access to medication by enabling users to reserve, purchase, and collect prescriptions from their preferred pharmacies with ease.
ApteGo leverages a range of Google Maps services to deliver a fully functional mapping experience, including:
Maps API
providing users with visual representations of nearby pharmacies.
Geocoding API
accurately locating users and nearby pharmacies.
Places API
enhancing search functionality and providing detailed information about listed pharmacies.
Results
ApteGo has seamlessly integrated with the system of LUX MED, a leading healthcare service provider in Poland. Upon leaving a LUX MED doctor’s office, patients’ prescribed medication is automatically added to their ApteGo cart. With a simple click, users can check medication availability and place orders or reservations. ApteGo then displays the nearest pharmacies where users can conveniently purchase their prescribed medication. Through Google Maps integration, patients can easily identify the most convenient pharmacy location to collect their medical supplies.
Collaboration Between ApteGo and Globema, a Google Premier Partner
We initiated our partnership with Globema in January 2023. After evaluating various mapping providers, we determined that Google Maps, supported by a Google Premier Partner like Globema, offered the optimal solution for our needs.
Throughout the development and production phases of our platform, Globema has consistently provided exceptional development and administration support for our Google Maps and Cloud solutions.
