Welcoming ORB Rx, Dr/ Prof Andrew Murray of the University of Edinburgh, a Sports Medicine physician who has led medical teams at World and European Championships across various sports, says: “Delivering a consistent standard in prescribing is critical for athlete safety and anti-doping compliance.
“ORB Rx is a timely solution: having the right information in one place – with secure digital prescribing and automatic Global DRO checks – is exactly what our industry and profession need. The clear oversight and audit capability will also be invaluable for medicines management across tournaments.”
Dr Danny Glover, CEO and Co-founder of ORB, says: “We developed ORB Rx to meet the challenges I’ve experienced myself prescribing in elite sports. The current processes used as standard across the industry are currently under review as compliance pressure is growing; athlete travel is at an all-time high, and each sportsperson is managed across multiple clubs, teams or squads. These days, paper workflows, separate compliance checks, manual stock tracking and fragmented reporting is just too clunky, slow and risky in our high-pressure, time-poor job.
“ORB Rx is a complete solution enabling medical teams to send fast, safe prescriptions, maintain a clean audit trial, automatically update stock and stop wasting many hours on manually chasing reports and patient records.”
About ORB
Founded by Dr Danny Glover and Dr Steven Whatmough, ORB was born from a shared frustration that health information is locked in silos across public medicine systems, private healthcare and sports medicine.
As practising clinicians in elite sports, emergency medicine and general practice, they experienced first-hand the impact of fragmented health information on time and quality of care.
This drove the desire to design and build a platform that provides access to all aspects of patient care – a platform that connects information from multiple sources including the NHS and makes it accessible to patients, health care professionals and medical systems for safer prescribing.
