NAME

AUTHOR

The app was created by Doug Hirsch, Trevor Bezdek, and Scott Marlette.

(Hirsch, Bezdek, & Marlette, 2020)

Founder Doug Hirsch had an alarmingly expensive prescription and could not find resources for

a cheaper price it was then that the idea for GoodRx was sparked. Trevor had previously

created Tryarc a company delivering strategy and implementation services for healthcare and

media organizations. And now has since developed Biowire a community for biologists and

other scientists to chare insights on best practices and

resources. Lastly Scott Marlette was one of the first employees at Facebook and was an engineer

and then product manager having developed photos and helped develop groups, events and

inbox. (Hirsch, Bezdek, & Marlette, 2020)

ENDORSEMENT

expert team. This includes a medical advisor, an expert in clinical pharmacy and patient

care, a public health pharmacist, health economist, health communication and policy, public

health and clinical research, health education, data science, women’s health and patient

advocacy, drug data, and a medical editor. (Hirsch, Bezdek, & Marlette, 2020) Although

all drugs discounted and listed in the database are FDA approved the company itself
