Twin Oaks Valley Road, Suite 101 San Marcos, CA 92069 Website: www.rxsafe.com With complete security and confidence, pharmacies can increase profitability, improve productivity, eliminate waste, theft and diversion, and free up floor space with the RxSafe 1800—more automated, secure and intelligent—no other system compares. Company Background RxSafe began operations in 2008. Many of the principal employees have been innovating together since the early 90’s at such companies as Pyxis, Omnicell and DDN where they have extensively contributed to the advancement of automation in the pharmacy industry. RxSafe’s founder and CEO, William Holmes has authored 49 U.S. patents. Technology sets RxSafe apart. One of our most recent developments is the DRI™, the first-of-its-kind, message initiation “data rich interchange” for the retail pharmacy market. This protocol is essential for real workflow, providing pharmacy management with a complete suite of reports at their fingertips. The DRI™ is an integral part of every RxSafe product, making it a unique offering in pharmacy management software. Product Overview The RxSafe 1800 is the leader in automated, high-density robotic storage and retrieval of stock bottles. It represents an evolutionary leap in pharmacy automation technology because it goes beyond drawerbased systems. Unlike vial filling robots that hold a small percentage of your formulary, a 3-tower RxSafe system can hold virtually all of your oral solid stock bottles. The restocking process is fully automated. RxSafe’s proprietary software interfaces with your PMS to track your inventory in real time, so you know what and when to reorder — no disappearing inventory, no opening a second bottle or waste due to expiration. All this means improved patient safety and more money to your bottom line. When you’re busy, the RxSafe 1800 system really shines. Users report that a single operator can routinely fill at an effective rate of over 100 scripts per hour. If your space is tight, or there’s better use for the space, RxSafe is the solution. In a 3-tower system up to 5,400 stock bottle containers fit in 40 square feet of space. Join the other independents, chains, hospitals, clinics, military, and institutional pharmacies that have selected RxSafe in the quest for a better pharmacy. Additional Features n 1 + 1 + 1 = Accuracy + Efficiency + Security One technician. One pharmacist. One open bottle at a time. With only one technician and one pharmacist, virtually every pharmacy, every day can fill all prescriptions without extra filling staff. You’ll need less people to do the same work when the RxSafe 1800 is by your side. And, with one open bottle at a time, there’s less chance for error, no wasted inventory, no narcotics theft. In fact, the RxSafe 1800 is so secure it’s been approved by the U.S. Department of Defense for C2 narcotics storage because it’s a safe that can limit access to any drug by worker classification. n Closed Inventory System & Forced Workflow The RxSafe 1800 is a closed inventory system that guarantees unprecedented inventory accuracy, theft prevention and security for all drugs. No more audits are required. With the RxSafe 1800, inventory is 100% accurate because it stores stock bottles behind locked doors and forces workflow at one station without the added expense of other software or hardware. Our proprietary software verifies you have access to the right bottle. When the bottle is returned to the system it’s weighed to insure accurate counts. User mistakes are tracked and slow moving inventory is flagged. No more overstocking or wasted inventory. n Remote Stock Management Remote Stock Management is another standard feature of the RxSafe 1800. All pharmacy inventory is managed by the system whether it’s inside or outside the RxSafe. No more headaches keeping track of difficult inventory.
