RxHub is the leader in connecting the prescribing industry for the exchange of real-time patient prescribing information while Argus Health Systems, Inc. is a leading pharmacy benefits management solutions provider and the pioneer in electronic claims processing.

These two have entered into an agreement to provide patient prescription information through RxHub to certified technology vendors in support of nationwide ePrescribing and improved quality of patient care.

"The health care industry is faced with a wide range of challenges," stated Wayne Armstrong, Senior Vice President of Operations at Argus. "One of the most important is how to utilize existing technology to improve the quality and timeliness of care to the people we serve.

Our ability to seamlessly integrate the delivery of information when and where it is needed during a patient's encounter with the health care system is the backbone of this process. We firmly believe that our relationship with RxHub is a significant step toward realizing our vision of a truly consumer-centric delivery of care in the future."
