BARRINGTON, Ill. General Electric’s healthcare unit, GE Healthcare IT, has signed with the information technology solutions company Kryptiq that will enable GE to exclusively distribute Kryptiq’s eScriptMessenger in conjunction with its Centricity Electronic Medical Records and Centricity Practice Solution to help speed up and offer easy access in managing prescription activities.

Under the joint agreement, GE will also work with Kryptiq to expand current connection capabilities and continue to address upcoming EMR certification and ePrescribing regulatory requirements. Kryptiq’s eScriptMessenger for GE’s Centricity EMR and Centricity Practice Solution will be sold exclusively through GE.

“As the Kryptiq ePrescribing solution is already readily accepted by several thousand of our Centricity EMR customers, we are excited to build on this existing alliance to meet the evolving needs of our customers with one point of purchase,” said James Corrigan, vice president and general manager, GE Healthcare IT. “Our guiding principle is to provide the best user experience and building on this relationship will allow even more customers to connect ePrescribing seamlessly into current workflows.”
