Maximus to Upgrade British Columbia's Drug Information System
Posted on: Monday, 10 March 2008, 12:00 CDT
Maximus, a provider of consulting and information technology solutions, has announced that its Canadian subsidiary, has signed a $14.2 million amendment to its master services agreement with the province of British Columbia Ministry of Health to upgrade province's drug information system.
PharmaNet links all British Columbia pharmacies to a central set of data systems. Under the amendment, Maximus will lead the effort to upgrade the province's application to the next generation PharmaNet-eRx application.
The company also claims that the PharmaNet-eRx upgrade is part of the province's eDrug initiative which will improve authorized access to patient medication histories, enhance the content of medication profiles, automate special authority processing and allow for electronic prescribing.
Richard Montoni, CEO of MAXIMUS, said: "The expansion of our partnership with the British Columbia Ministry of Health demonstrates our ongoing commitment to provide unparalleled service in our core markets."
