HEALTHCARE software provider, Modeus, will roll its HS8 Controlled Medication Register app out across the Western Australian health system, after securing a tender with the State Government.
The application integrates with many hospital systems, removing duplication and making workflows more accurate and efficient.
Modeus CEO, Carl Zufi, said the firm was thrilled to be partnering with WA Health following the successful electronic medications registers and compatible remote locking devices tender.
"Modeus initially presented HS8 to the WA Health Chief Pharmacists back in 2017 and since this time our company has been on a journey to continually improve the product with new integrations, new features and design enhancements," he said.
"We are delighted that WA hospitals will be implementing a product that is truly the first of its kind anywhere in the world.
"I personally couldn't be prouder of the Modeus team and would like to thank WA Health for putting its faith in our company.
"We acknowledge this as a fantastic opportunity for our company, and we can't wait to get started."
The application will initially be rolled out to Perth's King Edward Memorial Hospital, before being implemented across the broader public hospital system.
King Edward Memorial Hospital Chief Pharmacist, Michael Petrovski, said Modeus's HS8 would help prevent medication errors.
"WA Health are looking forward to partnering with Modeus to deliver HS8 to Western Australian public hospitals.
"Improving medication safety and governance throughout our hospital network has been at the forefront of our thinking to meet the needs of a digital health system."
