CSC Medication Management (MedChart) supports end-to-end medication management from prescribing, medication monitoring and dispensing through to administration. The solution incorporates clinical data from the patient’s record and external databases, to enable better coordinated care.

CSC’s Medication Management (MedChart) solution replaces paper medication charts in acute hospitals, aged care facilities and community health centres. Fully web based, the solution is easy to deploy and includes electronic prescribing, pharmacy review, drug administration and clinical decision support.

Proven to reduce medication errors (Westbrook, 2012), CSC Medication Management supports clinical workflows. Instead of adding to staff workload, the solution reduces effort and confusion, enables greater coordination and most importantly – provides an accessible, definitive and clear picture of a patient’s medications.
