ADL Data Systems, a software provider for nursing homes, announced that its electronic health record platform has been certified with Omnicare, the leading pharmacy services provider for nursing homes. ADL clients using the Physician Order Entry system can engage in bi-directional communications via the NCPDP Scripts 10.6 interface to electronically transmit prescriptions to Omnicare.

The Omnicare Certification assures that facilities using the ADL software will have a seem-less experience electronically communicating with Omnicare Pharmacies.  The integration time and costs are significantly less.

The integration assists in Omnicare being able to process and fill their Rx Orders quickly and accurately. This reduces the risk of medication errors and reduces the time needed to deliver the medications to the facility. With medication management being the number one risk factor in nursing homes, this certification with Omnicare makes an easy decision for nursing homes to improve their current medication ordering and administration processes.
