Pharmacy technology provider PDX has inked a deal with a provider of prescription drug inventory management technology to develop and co-market an integrated offering. PDX's partnership with Rx Net Services will allow users of both the PDX Pharmacy System and the new Enterprise Pharmacy System to integrate the Rx Net Services platform for managing problematic drug inventory with its PDX pharmacy technology platform, PDX said. The integration of Rx Net Services with the PDX pharmacy systems likely will be complete and available to customers first quarter 2011.
"Inventory management is a very significant issue for pharmacies. By partnering with Rx Net Services, PDX customers will have access to cutting-edge utilities that will reduce and better manage a very costly portion of prescription drug inventories," said Jeff Farris, president and CEO of PDX-Rx.com. "We remain focused on delivering solutions and services our pharmacy partners require to remain competitive. We are committed to providing them with innovative technologies — such as those offered by Rx Net Services — that enable them to manage their pharmacy business effectively and profitably." |
