Medication Tracking Solutions

Most health systems committed to 100% patient safety are embracing technologies such as barcode medication administration (BCMA). However, to make these programs effective in delivering promised improvements in patient safety, a hospital needs to have trackable medications and the means to monitor them accurately throughout the entire medication process to the point of bedside administration.

TrakRx

Our TrakRx™ portfolio of consulting services, packaging and barcoding solutions work together to reduce medication errors and provide traceability in the delivery and administration of medications throughout your health system. TrakRx also includes the most extensive formulary of barcode-enabled unit dose medications in the industry.

  • We start by evaluating your current medication inventory management and distribution processes to assess your adaptability to barcode-enabled point-of-care administration. We'll help ensure that pharmacy and nursing workflow is optimized to support the barcode medication administration processes and systems. This will improve documentation accuracy by tying inventory management to actual patient administration information versus dispensing data.
  • We’ll map your existing formulary and determine gaps where product barcodes are missing to determine the best strategy for achieving as close as possible to 100% bar-coded medications. We’ll complete a review of the applicable federal and state regulatory requirements regarding packaging and bar-coding, and ensure compliance. Lastly, we’ll assess the economic impact of the formulary changes required to maximize the percentage of pre unit-dosed and bar-coded medications entering your system.
  • Based on our evaluation, we offer a complete line-up of automation technologies needed to help ensure the most efficient and effective medication management and delivery. This includes inventory management systems, unit-dose packaging and barcode labeling machines for the pharmacy, along with medication cabinetry and dispensing units for the various care areas.
  • AmerisourceBergen has the largest formulary of barcode-enabled unit-dose medications in the industry—and it continues to grow on a regular basis. For most hospitals, in fact, we can provide more than 70% of their formulary in unit-dose and bar-coded form. Having AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation as your source for these medications ensures consistent high quality, a predictable supply, reliable delivery, simplified paperwork, and competitive pricing.
