The technology reduces waste as it does not generate unused blister packs that need to be destroyed or returned. It will help in saving an average of $4,000 per month per facility.
Additionally, InSite transforms workflow efficiency compared to the traditional blister card model and also strengthens revenue. It also reduces pharmacy labour saving $12,000 per year pharmacy technician.
With the latest agreement, InSite In-Facility Medication Packaging and Dispensing System becomes one of the products listed by MMCAP. It is available for purchase by its membership.
Swisslog Healthcare Long-Term Care vice-president Mike Carmody said: “Our agreement with MMCAP Infuse assures its members receive operational value on purchasing InSite systems.
