New additions to Fillware Technologies dispensing software

 

With new trends in the industry and to offer more options for patients, Fillware Technologies has implemented some changes and new additions. Our Compliance packaging module has a new layout providing easier navigation. It can now accommodate up to 12 administering times per day along with a delivery feature which works in combination with our orders delivery module. It also has the capability to send to numerous packing machines such as AutoMed, PacMed, SynMed, AdhereNet and BlistAssist.

Our Nursing Home module also has a new design with some added features. The Rx Verification window is a new feature which allows to verify prescriptions along with the medication dispensed through barcode scanning with the option to digitally sign the hardcopy from the same window. Thermal printing has also been implemented where prescription labels along with hardcopy and receipt will be printed onto thermal paper. This can work in combination with going fully paperless using the digital hardcopy signing method. Our Narcotic Reconciliation module was created to facilitate pharmacists to reconcile the purchases, sales, and destructions of controlled substances.
