This case study of Boston Medical Center is based on an August 2020 survey of MedHx customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.
“With MedHx we are seeing increased efficiencies across the pharmacy department while improving our ability to reduce Adverse Drug Events (ADEs). For one patient, we identified a potential duplication of insulin ordering from PCP and external diabetes specialist. The patient never mentioned that they were seeing an outside specialist but with Dr. First we were able to add the insulin to the patient list and monitor."
