The idea

Prescription Tracker is a personal prescription tracker for families with chronic conditions. It is the app that Privatium was built for: a folder of Lua, SQL, and HTML templates that a Privatium node runs on hardware you control. Records live as plain text in a folder on your disk, with no account, no cloud, and no database server.

What it does

It shows which refills are due, keeps each person's medication list, records fills by hand or from the pasted text of an insurer's portal, and tracks prior authorizations. It starts with a catalog of the most prescribed medications in the United States and looks up any other medication by name in the public drug references RxTerms, openFDA, and RxNorm.

A note on data

Privatium stores every record as plain text by design. Anyone who can read the files on the computer can read what the app stores, so the computer and its backups need the same protection as any file with health information in it.
