FDB CoordinateRx™

Using CoordinateRx’s pre-defined filters and customisable reporting tools, healthcare professionals can pinpoint trends and patterns indicating inappropriate antibiotic use. Targeted action plans are developed to address overprescribing, interventions are implemented, and regular monitoring and reporting ensure the sustainability of these interventions, contributing to the NHS goal of reducing antimicrobial resistance.

ICBs can set up projects based on incentive schemes and track delivery against preset targets. The platform provides dynamic project management, with role-based access ensuring only relevant stakeholders view specific data. Reports on project progress are generated for ICB boards, highlighting improvements in prescribing patterns and incentivising further participation with financial rewards.

Practice pharmacists can use CoordinateRx to document interventions such as medication reviews and audits. Capturing data points like GP appointments avoided and patient outcomes, the platform provides evidence of interventions’ effectiveness. This is crucial for reporting to ICBs and demonstrating the value of pharmacist-led interventions. The system also facilitates performance management and continuing professional development (CPD).

ICB medicines professionals can use the financial management module to track drug prices, rebate entries, and practice target spend. The system provides weekly updated drug price lists, allowing the individual to benchmark their spending against set targets. By generating finance reports and identifying anomalies, it highlights cost-saving opportunities and aligns with national efforts to switch to best value medicines.
