“Managing medications to prevent patient harm and to reduce waste is an incredibly complex and challenging process for hospital clinicians,” said Joseph Kaupp, Co-founder and CEO of Bainbridge Health. “In pursuit of our mission to distill that complexity in order to improve safety and eliminate avoidable cost, it is crucial to partner with mission-aligned industry leaders to continually innovate and drive value. We are privileged to have such a partner in DoseMe and look forward to working together to reduce cost and - most importantly - improve the safety and quality of patient care.”
Bainbridge Health provides clinical solutions based on more than a decade of research and development, including the Med O.S® medication safety and stewardship platform that reduces the risk of medication errors and waste. The partnership will leverage Bainbridge Health’s Med O.S® platform to further enhance medication safety and reduce costs across DoseMe’s partner hospitals.
DoseMeRx is a precision dosing software that was developed specifically for clinical practice. It is a simple, yet powerful tool helping healthcare providers calculate the optimal dose of drugs monitored by therapeutic drug monitoring to streamline operations, reduce adverse drug events, decrease costs, and improve patient outcomes.
"The precision dosing capabilities of DoseMeRx, combined with Bainbridge's platform, will provide new insights into optimizing intravenous medications in the acute care setting,” said TRHC Chairman and CEO Calvin H. Knowlton, PhD. “By bringing together our technologies, we increase the potential to support healthcare organizations to ensure medications are being appropriately prescribed and delivered to patients in the safest possible manner to improve medication stewardship, reduce adverse drug events and decrease the workload for pharmacy and nursing.”
“We are excited to partner with Bainbridge Health which has a long history and expertise in collaborating with adult and pediatric health systems to enhance medication safety and stewardship,” added Charles Cornish, CEO, DoseMe. “For those hospitals and infusion centers that choose our combined offering, we expect they will see a further enhancement in dosing performance while freeing up nurses and pharmacists to practice at the top of their licenses.”
