AUSTIN, Texas, June 25, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Prodigy Health, a national specialty drug distributor that is leveraging innovative technology solutions for managing specialty pharmaceuticals in the hospital supply chain, today announced a Purchase and License Contract to implement IntelliGuard’s Vendor Managed Inventory System™ to power the Prodigy Connect Real Time RFID solution.
“We are excited to partner with Prodigy Health to deliver IntelliGuard’s Intelligent Inventory Solutions’ unparalleled real-time visibility for critical inventory management to hospitals,” said Gordon Krass, IntelliGuard CEO.
The Prodigy Connect Real Time RFID Inventory Solution combines the Prodigy Vision Real Time Data Platform with the best in class IntelliGuard® Smart Cabinet Inventory System™. “This partnership is driving the realization of Prodigy’s goal of providing all members of the hospital supply chain an easy to navigate, fully serialized, end to end automation solution for managing high value specialty pharmaceuticals,” said Jon Houssian, Prodigy Health’s CEO.
In a simple to navigate cloud-based solution, Prodigy Vision allows hospitals and hospital groups to manage inventory par levels and set up automated restocking on any product. Every time the Smart Cabinet Inventory System™ door is opened and closed inventory automatically updates and product restocks are sent for the dispensed product.
Prodigy is the only RFID consignment provider that allows hospital groups to utilize both RFID enabled consignment solutions with non-RFID consignment locations and the ability to transfer product between them without being invoiced.
IntelliGuard® Intelligent Inventory Solutions™ provides the only Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) automated inventory management solution that enables enterprise-wide chain of custody across the healthcare continuum.
