Clinical Xpert Medication Reconciliation is a complete admission-to-discharge workflow solution that addresses all the hospital-based functions required for collecting, managing and reconciling a patient’s list of medications.
This Web-based solution aggregates data from the hospital information system (HIS), as well as from external pharmacy data feeds, and presents clinicians with a list of pre-identified patient medications. Having this information readily available and organized makes it easy for clinicians to validate medication information with the patient upon admission. Medication Reconciliation also helps clinicians manage a patient’s medications during their hospital stay to avoid medication errors or adverse drug events (ADEs). At discharge, Medication Reconciliation automatically places orders for additional prescriptions and generates patient discharge instructions.
Studies show that lack of effective medication reconciliation is responsible for over 50 percent of all medication errors, and up to 20 percent of all adverse drug events (ADEs).
