Talyst Exhibits Short-Cycle Remote Dispensing Technology at ASCP 2011
PHOENIX, Nov. 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Talyst, a leader in pharmacy automation, will be exhibiting this week at the 2011 American Society of Consultant Pharmacists (ASCP) Annual Meeting and Exhibition – "New Directions. Real Solutions." Talyst will demonstrate its short-cycle medication dispensing technology, the InSite™ Remote Dispensing System.
Remote dispensing technology is an option for pharmacies transitioning to short-cycle dispensing. The technology dispenses medications on-demand 24/7 allowing pharmacies to stay well within the 14-day or less requirement mandated by CMS which begins January 1, 2013.
"We continue to work hard to develop technology that streamlines pharmacy operations and improves resident safety at the facility," said Carla Corkern, Chief Executive Officer at Talyst. "We partner with long-term care pharmacies to grow their business."
Developed on a powerful foundation of hardware and software, the InSite remote dispensing unit is placed at the long-term care facility providing nurses 24/7 access to medications for PRNs and late admits. InSite dispenses medications in patient-specific multi-dose packages, right before a medication pass, virtually eliminating waste.
