PipelineRx Demonstrates Bolstered Scalability and Capacity of PowerGridRx™ Telepharmacy Platform at HIMSS17

System Infrastructure Optimized for High Availability in Software Release v2.9 with Demonstrations Available in Booth #3479

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.—February 7, 2017— PipelineRx, a leading medication management technology company focused on clinical telepharmacy, today announced strengthened system capacity and scalability of its PowerGridRx™ telepharmacy platform as part of its latest software release. Demonstrations of the software platform and recently introduced clinical services will be available in booth #3479 at the HIMSS17 Conference & Exhibition, taking place February 19-23 in Orlando. Currently over 300 hospitals deploy the Company’s solutions across the United States, with PipelineRx processing 1.2 million medication line items each month.

PowerGridRx™ enables hospitals of any size to centralize or network clinical pharmacy support across an organization with real-time data transparency. The cloud-based software helps improve the efficiency of medication order review and verification, and delivers more clinical interventions with the highest level of acceptance rates from physicians. By optimizing pharmacy staff and streamlining operational workflow, PipelineRx’s customers are providing better patient care while freeing up pharmacists for more clinical activities. The platform also enables larger hospital systems and IDNs to generate revenue by providing pharmacy services to nearby facilities.

The latest version of PowerGridRx includes features that improve pharmacist efficiency and enhance management of multi-site telepharmacies, in addition to greater system stability and scalability. These features are consistent with PipelineRx’s aim of increasing pharmacist productivity and quality while enabling optimization across multi-site healthcare networks–even those with disparate healthcare information systems.

Version 2.9 helps clinical users by:

  • Broadening the scope of viewable patient information and improving the search capability through interoperable information exchange with EHR systems;
  • Organizing and partitioning user information for enhanced security and reporting;
  • And, enabling rapid deployment and stability through an accelerated message-processing feature that handles large amounts of information in uneven flows of millions of data streams per month.

The result is a platform that shows both short- and long-term operational and financial benefits for telepharmacies.

PipelineRx’s user base has greatly expanded in the past year, and the performance and stability of PowerGridRx has proven essential to their growth. “Our team has made significant development investments in our cloud-based SaaS platform, including a high availability (HA) architecture for scalability and reliability, enhanced user interface components to present an efficient and modern workflow, and a foundation for data capture and analytics to support our big data initiatives,” explains Ben Buxton, VP of Engineering.

Brian Roberts, CEO of PipelineRx, explains, “As medication and operating costs continue to increase, this pressure requires healthcare systems to rethink how they organize work. Telepharmacy is a key opportunity that can both reduce costs and improve patient outcomes. We look forward to demonstrating how we are investing in the future for our hospital partners across the country at HIMSS. By continuing to increase the volume of medication line items we are able to verify, we are helping to ensure patient safety for our customers and their communities.”
