PipelineRx, a medication management technology company focused on clinical telepharmacy, has acquired a remote order entry business unit, including both hospital clients and telepharmacists from Health Enterprises for an undisclosed amount.

Headquartered  in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Health Enterprises (HE) is an alliance of independent hospitals, offering a variety of services to both members and non-members.

This acquisition expands PipelineRx's presence in Iowa and Nebraska whilst enabling HE members to have access to PipelineRx's telepharmacy services, clinical programmes and innovations.

HE's pharmacy services has been making use of PipelineRx's PowerGridRx, a  cloud-based HIPAA-compliant telepharmacy platform, for a smooth transition for all parties.

PipelineRx claimed that by bringing the services internally, each facility will be able to depend on its best practices. As part of the PipelineRx network, these facilities will now gain access to additional coverage and service offerings as these are introduced alongside the cloud-based technology.

Health Enterprises pharmacy services executive director Aaron Lott said: "For several years PipelineRx's software has been a key element of our operations, helping us improve our medication management processes and keep our patients safe.
