Is your EMR in need of medication lists that includes generic, brand name over-the-counter products?
I call attention to my colleague's posting (Mark Dachille) several weeks ago, just prior to HIMSS, when he said.
"Lexicomp can help by providing a medication list that includes both generic, brand name, and over-the-counter drugs. By providing drug interaction screening including drug-drug, drug-allergy, drug-condition, dose range checking, and duplicate therapy screening, Lexicomp can help EHR vendors meet a number of Meaningful use requirements. The Lexi-Data product delivered by Lexicomp is also mapped to RXNORM and contains patient education which is another check box on the Meaningful Use requirements list.
Although there are a number of vendors providing drug nomenclatures, not many can provide all of these features, and could lead to issues down the road with achieving Meaningful Use certification"
Based on this posting, there were many people who visited the Lexicomp looking for solutions to their drug data needs.
