DrFirst Presents At MEDITECH’s 2017 International MUSE Conference - Margaret Kelly - 05-26-2017
DrFirst Presents An Intelligent Medication Management Showcase At MEDITECH’s 2017 International MUSE Conference
In addition to the speaking sessions, DrFirst will be offering pre-scheduled medication reconciliation data quality improvement analysis reviews where MEDITECH users can identify their specific opportunity for medication history quality improvement. DrFirst will review the users’ actual data to identify the percentage data quality gain that can be achieved, driving fewer mistakes, lower adverse drug events (ADEs) and readmissions. MEDITECH users must respond prior to the conference to secure one of the limited timeslots available.
These presentations will explore key aspects of intelligent medication management, addressing best practices that will bring e-prescribing to the next level and enable organizations to optimize the use of data to gain clinical efficiencies and enhance patient safety.
