Background
The Southern Arizona VA Health Care System (SAVAHCS) is seeking a contractor to provide a ScriptPro SP100/CCC, Robotic Prescription Dispensing System with Collating Control Center. The system is at the core of the outpatient pharmacy prescription processing workflow and has been used since late 2006, improving safety and throughput for local prescription processing. The SP50 robot has reached the manufacturer’s anticipated end of life, resulting in increased breakdowns and downtime, impacting pharmacy efficiency, productivity, and patient wait times. Replacement and upgrading of this vital piece of pharmacy automation is needed at this time.
Work Details
The contractor is required to provide a ScriptPro SP100/CCC, Robotic Prescription Dispensing System with Collating Control Center, installation, and support for purchase. The system must adhere to specific salient characteristics including:
- Holding up to 100 different medications
- Dispensing them accurately and quickly
- Providing an additional level of safety for each drug cell and corresponding barcode
- Filling up to 150 prescriptions per hour

- Tracking medication inventory
- Automatically printing and applying patient labels to prescription vials
- Being configurable to dispense different quantities of medication
- Having built-in safety features such as drug verification checks and warning systems
- Including robust maintenance and support options to ensure continuous operation.
The installation involves replacing the existing SP50 robot with a new SP100 robot with 4 new robotic cell multiplexors (RCMs), integrating it with existing infrastructure and workflow, ensuring interoperability with VA VistA via HL7 interface and Outpatient Pharmacy Automation Interface (OPAI), not interfering with the current ScriptPro maintenance contract, functioning on a virtual local area network (VLAN), meeting or exceeding OI&T HL7 data transmissions and security requirements.
