Sure Med Compliance is a Mobile, Alabama–based digital health company led by CEO John Bowman. Its core product is the Perspectives in Care platform, an electronic patient‑reported outcome system shown to improve outcomes in pain management settings. The technology pairs that outcome platform with a private marketplace that lets life‑sciences companies advertise products to physicians at the point of care. The company plans to nationally scale the Perspectives in Care platform and to build two additional platforms focused on orthopedics and addiction medicine. Financially, Sure Med Compliance completed a $1M Pre‑Series A raise to fund those expansion plans. The round included a $250k state grant component through the Innovate Alabama Supplemental Grant program. Sure Med Compliance develops tools and services to improve opioid-prescribing compliance, including training, chart auditing, software integration, and written diversion control plans. Its Care Continuity Program (CCP) is described as the first and only Active Verification software solution available to patients outside the office; CCP helps identify a patient’s suitability for opioid therapy before a physician prescribes. The company says it has had significant impact on prescribing habits in the Southeast United States and has become the market leader in opioid prescribing compliance. With the recent award from NIDA, SMC plans to further product development, conduct clinical research, and measure patient outcomes. The company will also leverage advisement and mentoring from NIDA’s scientific research entrepreneurship experts to refine and prove its approach.
