Customer Highlight: HealthSmart Pacific, Inc.
Industrial Pharmacy Management, LLC (IPM) has developed a program that enables individual physician and group practices with occupational, personal injury and cash product lines the ability to prescribe and dispense FDA approved, pre-packaged medication in a safe and compliant manner to their patients through the use of an in-house dispensary. IPM is the nation’s largest and most experienced physician office dispensing management services organization, with over 30 years of knowledge and expertise in the healthcare and pharmacy provider industry. IPM’s full management program meets all DEA, FDA, and state boards of medicine and pharmacy rules and regulations. Their in-office drug-dispensing program provides a number of benefits to both physicians and patients.
| David Wueste, VP and CIO over IPM and other sister companies, has acknowledged that this business challenge could not have been reasonably accomplished with other models. David’s future plans are to incorporate Accenx’ solutions into other similar business process integration challenges such as a Diagnostic Services Physician Outreach Program being developed by a Southern California based acute hospital under his scope of management. |

Patient benefits are safe and convenient access to prescribed medications and one-stop financial responsibility tied with their physician visit. Physician benefits include enhanced patient care and satisfaction; increased patient safety due to reduced coordination required in comparison with working outside pharmacies; and enhanced practice revenue.
IPM’s dispensing process includes a five-way matching inventory system that tracks all medication from the inception of a prescriber’s order through dispensing, to timely billing and inventory management, expert collections/liens management and ultimately to detailed financial reports.
IPM delivers a full turn-key solution combining in-house program development, training and setup as well as outsourced services that enables a physician or group practice to fully leverage an in-house pharmacy program in weeks instead of months and years, and do so with a compliant, safe and well-defined manner.
Accenx pioneered the ability to execute the complex integration challenges such as the one defined by IPM’s business model through the use of the RyTRAK-HIE solution. This solution addresses the disparate and typically non-standards based Practice Management/EMR systems integration challenge of electronically capturing patient demographics information to support real-time patient registration data required for dispensing from IPM’s remote clients across the Internet securely
