Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus are disclosed to initialize a pharmacy application in a mobile computing device, the pharmacy application configured to prompt a user for a location acceptance via a question prompt notification. The pharmacy application may be launched in a background process of the mobile computing device, without user intervention, wherein the pharmacy application is configured to transmit a location of the mobile computing device and customer identification information to a remote pharmacy computing system, and receive a ready prescription including a pickup location at a predetermined pharmacy location from the remote pharmacy computing system. When the mobile computing device is within a proximity of the predetermined pharmacy location, the pharmacy application may display, on the mobile communication device, an indication that the ready prescription is available at the pickup location.
