QuadraMed Pharmacy Release Targets Enhanced Patient Safety And Medication Reconciliation Regulations.

RESTON, Va. -- QuadraMed([R]) Corporation (Amex:QD) today announced that the company expects to complete beta testing of Affinity([R]) Pharmacy v3.15 in December, and is targeting general availability for clients in January 2007. The product enhancements in regulatory, integration, technical and interface functionality developed for this release will help Affinity HIS (Healthcare Information System) and QuadraMed Long Term Care Pharmacy users improve patient safety and meet new prescription reporting requirements.

QuadraMed will be previewing Affinity Pharmacy v3.15 at the ASHP (American Society of Health-System Pharmacists) Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition, December 3-7, in Anaheim, California, Booth 2710.

The five healthcare facilities completing beta testing of Affinity Pharmacy v3.15 report the product's capabilities for variable dosing and improved paper MAR content are particularly effective. This version enables pharmacists to create predefined drug dosing parameters and attached them to a formulary item and predefined orders. These parameters can be modified for all types of orders before saving or activating them, then viewed and/or printed on reports, such as MARs, that display medication orders.

QuadraMed clients using Affinity Pharmacy v3.15 will experience increased Medication Reconciliation functionality for greater patient safety and improved quality of care. These users will have the ability to automatically capture nursing information from the bedside, reducing the possibility of ADEs (adverse drug events) by eliminating the need to re-enter key patient information by the pharmacy department. The software also provides complete prescription reports for facility Admissions departments, transfers from one level of care to another, and a discharge report for clinicians. QuadraMed plans to beta test a further enhancement for Affinity Pharmacy in early 2007. It will feature the capability to generate a Patient Discharge Report, thereby helping clients meet a JCAHO 2007 Medication Reconciliation goal for this functionality.

Of special interest to long-term care providers, including mental health facilities using QuadraMed Long Term Care Pharmacy with v3.15 enhancements, are redesigned charges, prescription refill history and third party billing, which will streamline billing to multiple Medicare Part D payers. The software will feature provision for a new data element, the National Provider Identification (NPI) number, to be used in billing and claims adjudication for federal and state transactions. Also included are the new fields required by ASAP (American Society for Automation in Pharmacy) rules-based standards, and the related ASAP Code Set, to support reporting for state prescription (controlled substance) monitoring programs.
