Tampa, Florida,
July 2008 – Wellpartner, Inc. has awarded Fairfax
Imaging, Inc. a contract to develop and maintain a
turn-key mail order imaging and processing solution
for its mail order pharmacy. The system performs
high speed color batch scanning of both sides of all
incoming prescriptions and other forms and
documents. Fairfax Imaging will be the sole
contractor for this project and will provide the
development and integration for the entire
solution.
Fairfax Imaging
will install its award winning imaging and
data-capture platform, Quick Modules, which is
scalable and tailor-able to meet Wellpartner’s
current and future mail order pharmacy requirements.
“It is not just
high speed batch scanning,” said Jerry McMunn, R.Ph,
Vice President, Commercial Sales, Fairfax Imaging.
“Since Wellpartner’s pharmacists and technicians
will be reading and entering information into their
pharmacy management system from the prescription and
other document images, they need a system that can
deliver photographic quality images captured from
both sides of these documents. Prescriptions
written on dark colored or safety paper, or on paper
with complex printed backgrounds, will need to be as
legible as those written on plain white paper. The
scanners we are recommending, plus the color image
capabilities of our software systems meet all of
these requirements.”
A turn-key,
hardware-independent solution, Quick Modules
provides faster processing and increased cost
efficiency. By applying the latest in recognition
technologies, including BCR, software check
recognition and color batch processing, the system
will enable Wellpartner to streamline its operations
and increase the productivity of its labor force.
Another definitive
factor in Wellpartner’s choice is Quick Modules’
scalability.
“We are able to
provide Wellpartner the functionality they need most
at a cost they can absorb,” added McMunn. “It is
difficult for many emerging mail order pharmacies to
justify the cost of a full featured data capture
imaging system such as those used by Fairfax
Imaging’s large volume clients. For mail order
pharmacies like Wellpartner, this affordable image
capture system is just what the doctor ordered.”
Quick Modules is a
scalable product that can be installed as an
economical imaging capture solution for lower-volume
mail order processing. From the start, companies
can acquire the benefits they need at a cost they
can justify. As these companies grow, they keep
pace by obtaining added functionality and processing
power without having to throw away what is already
installed. The scalability of the Quick Modules
software suite will support Wellpartner with
virtually unlimited growth potential by building
onto the current solution with additional modules
and capacity for increased volume.
“Down the road,
when Wellpartner is ready for other capabilities
like automatic order creation, paperless check
deposit via Fairfax Imaging’s Quick Check 21
processor, automated faxback processing with
automatic reminder faxes or
unsolicited-new-prescription-by-fax processing, they
will be able to simply add the appropriate modules
from the Quick Modules suite to what they already
have,” said Michael Minter, Vice President, Sales
and Marketing, Fairfax Imaging. “This is the kind
of scalability and flexibility of our solution that
today’s growing companies need. No dead ends.”
“As a company, we
recognize the need to continue to deliver improved
customer service while lowering the cost associated
with processing incoming mail,” said W. Michael
Wright, Wellpartner President and CEO. “The system
we will be using from Fairfax provides us with a
scalable approach for processing the growing volume
of prescriptions received by mail in a more
efficient and cost effective manner.”
