14 January 2016 - - Indiana, US-based not-for-profit health plan, MDwise, Inc., is using ZeOmega Inc. technology to improve medication safety and help reduce chances for medication-related issues as patients move through the care continuum with the end goal of achieving better health outcomes, the company said.

MDwise is focusing on medication by adding Medication Therapy Management Part D functionality in the Jiva population health platform from ZeOmega.

The move means the 1,400-plus providers in MDwise's network can now access Jiva to better understand the medications patients are being prescribed, assess their drug therapy adherence, and make necessary adjustments to improve medication safety.

This is especially important for more than 360,000 elderly, low-income, youth, and other vulnerable populations served by MDwise plans such as Hoosier Healthwise, Healthy Indiana Plan, and Hoosier Care Connect.
