Enhancing the Abilities of Healthcare SectorA pharmacy management system is a digital platform that pharmacies use to digitize their operations and automate many workflows. Activities like inventory management, reviewing prescriptions, handling billing and insurance, and preparing prescriptions are some things done easily with a pharmacy database management system. Having such software solutions accelerates day-to-day operations, reduces operating overhead, and minimizes the chances of errors. In other words, a pharmacy system goes a long way toward enabling pharmacists to serve their customers better and increase their revenues in the process.
Healthcare providers are continually looking to improve patient care experiences, and e-prescription is one great way of enhancing patient safety. E-prescription systems help healthcare providers to create and send prescriptions electronically to pharmacies for processing and delivery.
We develop customized pharmacy management software architectures that maintain secure communication of e-prescriptions between the patients, their relative pharmacies, and claims agencies. The e-prescribing software simplifies the entire process flow of the pharmacy’s system, and error-free dispensing and billing increases patient satisfaction.
Like other areas of healthcare, pharmacies also handle a large amount of data. Pharmacy data management solutions provide real-time data that helps pharmacists control operating costs, ensure medication adherence, and improve population health management.
Robust pharmacy management systems with intelligent analytics provide seamless access to patient data as well as demographic related information. These solutions also work toward incorporating audit requirements and updates and modifications related to billing and claims.
We design data management modules that help to document and manage patients’ Electronic Health Records (EHR) and Electronic Medical Records (EMR), along with the doctor’s notes, supporting documents, scans, and X-rays, all in one place.
Small and independent pharmacies should actively manage their inventory by taking stock of it frequently, rather than just once or twice a year. Doing so will help them understand trends, identify problems, and make timely changes.
Customized pharmacy inventory management systems improve efficiency through process-flow automation of stocking, numerical balances, monitoring and tracking, warehouse stock manifests, and dispensing updates.
Through the generation of a wide variety of reports, pharmacists can review important information about different medicines, vendors, and wholesalers efficiently. Our automation techniques incorporate barcodes that meet compliance requirements aiding in better inventory management.
Pharmacies are a gateway to the health system for most patients as patients visit pharmacies more often than healthcare facilities. So pharmacies can help healthcare providers in better patient engagement, patient education, and care management.
OSP’s pharmacy management software solutions aim to combine the pharmacy’s compounding skills and multiply them through integration with innovative technologies.
Highly advanced systems help pharmacists create customized medication packages for each patient. Patients prefer value-based care that addresses their individual needs, so the overall revenue generation of the pharmacy increases.
One of the most associated and critical actions in a pharmacy is the dispensing of medicines. The pharmacy receives the prescription and reviews it for potential drug interactions, appropriate dosage, duplicate therapies, or transcription errors. The pharmacy then dispenses the prescription and confirms the filled prescription contains the right medication, dosage, and supply.
OSP’s pharmacy management solution merges workflows, clinical procedures, programs, data, and stock reporting into a centralized platform that helps the healthcare personnel in intelligent decision-making.
Customized processes of delivery, drug refills, and clinical department cross-communication streamline the dispensing workflows. Our solution automates the prescription fulfillment process as well as the requests for delivery of medications.
A Master Patient Index (MPI) is a patient database that helps pharmacies maintain accurate patient data across separate systems and create consolidated patient lists. The MPI assigns a unique identifier to each registered patient.
OSP’s pharmacy management system automates the index through state-of-the-art technologies for minimal human involvement in maintenance and updates of patient information and communication.
An MPI provides a complete view of a patient’s medical data so pharmacies can provide better patient care and better service. Pharmacies can also provide proper guidance in an emergency as they have access to details like the patient’s medical conditions and other information.
This is perhaps one of the most visible advantages of using pharmacy management software. It digitizes almost all workflows and eliminates the need to handle physical documentation. Furthermore, even physician prescriptions are obtained and viewed in digital format. By eliminating the need for paperwork, physical filing, and documentation, pharmacy inventory software sharply reduces the need for paperwork and helps reduce the industry's carbon footprint.
Depending on its size, a pharmacy would need to handle an inventory consisting of hundreds and even thousands of types of drugs and medical necessities. A pharmacy inventory management system uses barcodes and scanners to help track the inventory quickly and efficiently to know if certain items need to be ordered for replenishing existing stocks optimally. This helps pharmacy managers avoid ordering too many or too few items and prevent waste.
This is one of the most useful features that every pharmacist prefers having in his or her pharmacy inventory management system. A pharmacy would handle hundreds of types of drugs and other supplies. So, it becomes important to know which are nearing expiration or if any have already reached it. OSP can build Pharmacy management systems to alert pharmacists if anything is nearing expiration, which enables them to order fresh stocks.
