title: Aggregation of pharmacy dispensing data into a unified patient medication history.
abstract: The Regenstrief Medication Hub system collects pharmacy data from two different sources: Wishard Health Services, and dispensing claims provided by RxHub. These lists are indexed, aggregated, and filtered, to create a single Medication History for each patient. This history is then provided to the Gopher computerized prescribing system. The Medication Hub is a scalable system, capable of integrating additional sources of pharmacy data.
