Sentry Brings Expertise to 340B Coalition Winter Conference

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., Feb. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sentry Data Systems, Inc., a healthcare business intelligence technology solutions company headquartered in Deerfield Beach, Florida has a team of 340B experts preparing to attend the 8th Annual 340B Coalition Winter Conference taking place February 29 – March 2 in San Diego, California. Sentry is proud to be a Premium Exhibitor and the official Grand Prize Passport Sponsor.

The conference will focus on the increased scrutiny of the 340B program from Congress as well as HRSA and the implications of this oversight amidst the current 340B audit environment. Sentry personnel are ready to speak with conference attendees about preparing their Covered Entities with software solutions that address the critical functions needed to maintain 340B program integrity, operate with ongoing compliance within HRSA guidelines, and develop a documented trail of activity from the provider to the patient to the pill to the purchase.

"The fact that compliance and auditability are now center stage with all 340B stakeholders is the inevitable and natural conclusion of the recent program expansion and Congressional review. I am proud that our software products have always been developed with compliance as their cornerstone. Sentry provides Covered Entities the necessary tools to maintain program integrity and benefits," said Travis Leonardi, President and Founder of Sentry. "As the Hospital 340B software leader with hundreds of hospital and pharmacy clients across the country, Sentry is uniquely qualified to provide both insight and direction on current 340B discussions."

Sentry has two key 340B solutions, Sentinel and Sentrex, both of which were developed with the rules based technology that provides audit preparation tools, detailed reports and a documented trail of program compliance. Both Sentinel RCM (hospital program management) and Sentrex (contract pharmacy solution) are guided by the Covered Entity's federally-mandated Policies and Procedures.
