The agreement enables IntraNexus to re-market Mediware’s Ascend pharmacy-management system as an integrated component of the company’s Sapphire health information system. Sapphire is a comprehensive, web-based technology platform for healthcare institutions that enables facilities to achieve a fully integrated electronic medical record to maximize safety and efficiency.
Sapphire provides clinicians with an all-inclusive electronic medical record, including computerized physician order entry, results reporting, and a clinical data repository. Sapphire also enables clinicians to remotely access secure, anytime/anywhere patient information using any device with Web access.
Mediware’s Ascend software addresses the pharmacy management needs of community hospitals, behavioral health facilities, and the expanding alternate-site/home infusion and specialty pharmacy markets. It is reportedly used by more than 300 customers throughout the US.
Richard O’Pry, president and CEO of IntraNexus, said: “By joining forces with Mediware we can provide hospitals with an integrated solution that is flexible and scalable for any size hospital, from the bedside to the pharmacy. By incorporating the Ascend pharmacy management application into Sapphire we can increase the overall capabilities of our solution and provide our clients with the best pharmacy system on the market.”
