Snapsflow Telepharmacy Solutions from SNAPS Inc. enable hospitals to provide off-site Telepharmacy services for sister hospitals and/or client hospitals via a web based application. Directors of Pharmacy and pharmacy staff are instantly notified when a new medication order is either faxed or scanned in at any nursing station or department within a hospital.

A pharmacist working at a hospital or at home can review the order for appropriateness and either approve the order or transmit a request for clarification to the nurses station or physician instantly. The nursing/pharmacy relationship is materially improved because all stake-holders know precisely where a medication order is in process.

Our Telepharmacy solutions also lower timebetween medication order receipt and pharmacist review. Snapsflow routes the order (based on hospital business rules) automatically to any location within or outside of the hospital for the appropriate pharmacist’s review. Snapsflow can greatly enhance pharmacy staff coverage by allowing pharmacists to review and approve orders from home after usual pharmacy business hours or by sharing Pharmacist resources amongst hospitals.

Snapsflow is being implemented by hospitals wanting to provide more consistent pharmacist involvement in the med order process. JCAHO requirements are rapidly mandating that pharmacists review every medication order prior to the medication being dispensed.

Snapsflow Telepharmacy solutions allow both on-site and off-site pharmacists to visually check and review all med orders and insure that the medication is appropriate for the patient based on the five R’s: right dose, right route, right time, right medicine, right patient.
