Adverse drug events (ADEs) are considered a top four leading cause of death in the U.S. and a worldwide concern. This includes falls, emergency room visits, hospitalizations, morbidity, and even premature death. While many ADEs are preventable, the current healthcare delivery system was not designed to assess the hazard associated with polypharmacy and disease problem interactions.
GalenusRx empowers cutting-edge care that improves patient health outcomes and helps reduce the potential of legal and financial burdens by taking proactive, predictive, and preventive steps to mitigate the risk of medication-related problems. The GalenusRx APPRAISE™ (Actionable PolyPharmacy Risk Assessment Index for Safety and Equity) solution, designed to materially decrease the risk of ADEs, supports providers with the information needed to assess and adjust medication regimens to directly mitigate the probability of harm while improving efficacy.
