The notification of medication requirements via the SMA app is intended for the continuation of existing medications. The digital supply request from the SMA app primarily serves to save time and make it possible to obtain the necessary and appropriate supply from home (without physical contact with an outpatient clinic, pharmacy, or medical supply store). The focus is on arranging care from home. 

The notification of medication requirements via the SMA app is double-checked by the attending physician and the pharmacist at a network pharmacy that specialises in the care of patients with SMA. Every supply of medication requires a medical decision and an accompanying prescription or order.
