From the AmerisourceBergen Technology Group comes a unique “Integrated Solution” of pharmacy automation and patient safety systems. This Integrated Solution truly redefines the entire pharmacy supply chain, from the purchasing office, through the pharmacy, all the way to the nursing station. The most urgent concerns of pharmacy today – improved inventory management, bar coding, cost savings, medication safety – are all managed efficiently in one package. For optimal clinical performance, AmerisourceBergen Technology Solutions’ Integrated Solution is the smart, simple, and safe choice.

As the core of the Integrated Solution, AmerisourceBergen’s customized inventory management system increases the efficiency of your supply chain management while decreasing inventory costs and shrinkage. The scalable, flexible software (for local or campus-wide applications) integrates pharmacy, materials, finance, nursing, and purchasing. The system enables you to better manage drug and materials processes, automatically sets Min/Max levels throughout the pharmacy and satellites, and helps detect and reduce diversion. The system also manages 340B inventory and reimbursement.

The AutoMed FastPakTM EXP is the industry’s most flexible, expandable oral solid pouch packaging and bar coding system. This flagship of the scalable FastPak lineup offers significant advancements over other oral solid packaging systems: an expandable capacity – from 128 to 320 factory-calibrated canisters (and beyond with Smart Canisters); the ability to process narrow unit-dose packaging and standard-width unitor multi-dose packaging; interchangeable packaging mechanisms to quickly switch between standard or narrow width, or to keep a backup. Using the FastPak EXP can save up to 7 cents per dose converting from unit dose to bulk.

The Efficiency WorkPath® Barcoding Station helps hospital pharmacies achieve complete and cost-effective bar coding safety, and enables bar coding at the point of care (BPOC). The software and labeling system accurately manages all items not bar coded by the manufacturer. On-screen medication images verify that the right bar code is being applied to the right product. The Barcoding Station also facilitates inventory management and procurement systems to control costs, since medication can be tracked through the entire hospital. Labels are configurable.

Whether your hospital manages medications in a decentralized or a combination/hybrid environment, MedSelect® automated, decentralized medication dispensing is the safeguard system that enhances clinical performance and medication safety. Built-in safety controls ensure patients get the right medication when and where they need it. Time-saving features and fast biometric access can save nursing up to 30 minutes per shift, just by eliminating shift counts. MedSelect is enabled by a powerful Oracle database and ExaminerTM data analysis and reporting tools that give you full access – in real time and online – to all your data for up to five years.
