Best hospital outpatient pharmacy computer system?

[gnuel]

Hello, does anyone have experience with a really good computer system in such a setting? I've been tasked with possibly replacing our current system, and will do my research, but am curious to see what other places have success with.


Thanks!

Nebraska Med Center outpatient pharmacy uses FSI for processing scripts and ScriptPro for filling/labels/robot. Works fairly well. FSI seems like an old computer system though.

Oh Interesting. My current institution utilizes FSI + Parata. However, the volume is extremely high, doing around ~1300 a day, which leads to long wait times. I'm trying to find anyway possible to make things more efficient.

We use Mckesson and it is sooooo inefficient. My pharm director is looking at replacing it with Cerner. So you might want to check that out. It's windows based and pretty cutting edge.

I have been looking into software for out outpatient pharmacy as well, but we are much, much slower so our needs are different. I have demos/ quotes out with WinRx, WinPharm, and PioneerRx. So far PioneerRx has been the best looking with a nice quote. Their 340b management suite is very nice (don't know if you are a DSH or not). QS/1 is supposed to be the industry leader, but I was less than impressed with the system and the costs were astronomical. We are hoping to make a decision in the next month or two.

Avoid Visual SuperScript like the plague. It is our current system and it is terrible. Buggy, crashing almost every day, slow, hard to use, with almost non-existent support.

I liked RX30 when I had it at USC. It integrated well with our ScriptPro.
