    BELLEVUE, WA, February 18, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Pharmacy OneSource, Inc., software as a service provider to more than 1,300 hospitals in the United States, announced today that Duke University Hospital has adopted Simplifi 797 to simplify meeting all requirements of USP Chapter 797 for compounding sites throughout the hospital.

"At Duke University Hospital we struggled with meeting USP 797 documentation requirements in a consistent and standardized fashion across the enterprise," said Michael DeCoske, PharmD, Pharmacy Administrative Services Coordinator at Duke University Hospital. "Simplifi797 gives us a one-stop dashboard for all documentation requirements. Its diverse functionality allows us to customize to our site-specific practice."  

Simplifi 797 is a web-based application that automates, integrates and streamlines the quality activities and documentation required to meet USP Chapter 797. Simplifi 797 manages task scheduling for environmental monitoring and automates the reporting of exceptions and compliance.

DeCoske said Duke University Hospital found the included policies and competency checklists to be extremely useful for the many pharmacy areas that compound sterile medications.

"The best part about Simplifi797 is the reporting," DeCoske said. "We can print a simple report and trend how we are performing with documentation on a monthly basis and pinpoint our areas for improvement."
