(HealthNewsDigest.com) – TORONTO, Jan. 8 – PharmaTrust(TM) has been invited to participate in the 29(th) Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco, January 10(th) to 13(th) 2011, at the Westin St. Francis. The company will present its
revolutionary PharmaTrust Healthcare Everywhere offering which includes the PharmaTrust MedCentre(TM), MedHome(TM) and PharmaNet technology platform for pharmacy remote dispensing, and patient compliance management.
PharmaTrust’s unique extension of care platform is currently available
in the USA, the UK and Canada, and is being positioned in pilot and
early production deployments this year in these countries by leading
brands.
The PharmaTrust(TM) network’s first product, the PharmaTrust MedCentre(TM), is
a complete pharmacy-in-a-box, with the capacity to dispense over 2,000
different prescription and OTC medications, and includes such features
as pill counting and refrigeration. Entirely pharmacist operated and
controlled, the MedCentre(TM) puts 24-hour pharmacists and pharmacies
everywhere, extending the reach of traditional pharmacies without the
time, distance, language, or costs of traditional pharmacies.
“Pharmacy’s margins are getting tighter. Internationally, governments
are seeking lower costs and increased accessibility, while the
population is aging, creating a commensurate demand on healthcare
resources,” said Peter Suma, President and COO of PharmaTrust(TM). “These
are global trends that the PharmaTrust MedCentre(TM) technology was built
to mitigate, by creating a safe and cost effective alternative to the
traditional pharmacy.”
The Pharmatrust MedCentre(TM) is a remote pharmacy dispensing technology
that allows people to have access to multi-lingual pharmacy services 24
hours a day, seven days a week. It employs state-of-the-art remote and
scanning technologies to provide patients with a remote, face-to-face
consultation with a live pharmacist, and to have their prescriptions
filled quickly and safely. The MedCentre(TM) is the safest, most
comprehensive, and first economically viable at scale, health care
pharmacy system developed globally to date.
Pharmacies, pharmacy-benefit-managers (PBM’s),
health-maintenance-organizations (HMO’s), employers and insurance
carriers alike, can now consider labor costs as globally flexible and
scalable with demand and not retail locations, while delivering new
service and information offerings utilizing a platform created to lower
their operating costs, and capture more market share. Health networks
which deploy MedCentres(TM) may offer new savings, extend their store
footprints and market shares, and deliver more chronic disease
management services to where the patients are, right in the workplace,
the clinic, the hospital or the shopping mall.
Employers who wish to deploy MedCentres(TM) in their workplaces can see
lower costs from the lessened overhead of pharmacy, and lower
distribution costs than mail-order delivered drugs, while making
pharmacy benefits more accessible to their employees. Employers no
longer need to pay more for the urgent medications that cannot be
contracted through home-delivery. Now, both urgent and chronic
medications can be delivered using MedCentres(TM) and home-delivery.
