Customer

The customer provides innovative pharmacy and medication management solutions for healthcare professionals and health systems pursuing the automation pharmacy.

Business Challenge

The medical management solution provider was looking to transform its Pharmacy automation solutions, automate their medication dispensing processes, improve inventory control, eliminate errors during medication dispensing in the pursuit to achieve better patient outcomes and free up the pharmacists for more clinically focused initiatives.

They wanted to adopt intelligent solution that automates workflow, streamline pharmacy operations, and improve safety to optimize entire medication management process. Their process was currently disconnected and time consuming and leading to:

  • Medication related problems account for 40% hospital re-admission.
  • 75% of pharmacy time goes in non-clinical activities.

There was dependency on manual and inefficient processes that was prone to errors. Medical dispensing and central pharmacy were not automated and was not regulated.

WinWire Solution
