San Diego, CA (August 22 , 2008) – Over seventy attendees from forty different pharmaceutical companies are expected to gather at the San Diego Marriott before the NACDS conference on August 25 to learn about the unique service offerings that ValueCentric and PDX-Rx.com now have available: ValueTrak Compliance & Persistency Programs that combine ValueCentric’s suite of proven patient-centric tools with real time visibility of trade and prescription data from PDX-Rx.com’s participating customers, a network of as many as 11,000 retail pharmacy locations.

Dave Janca, founder and CEO of ValueCentric explained, "These new combined capabilities of ValueCentric and PDX-Rx.com expand manufacturers’ visibility of their product movement deeper into the supply chain to include the prescription leaving the store. The linking of ValueCentric’s trade data with PDX-Rx.com’s prescription data along with compliance programs provides unique options to manufacturers allowing them to truly manage their products from initial shipments to the trade through to how they impact prescription compliance rates. This is all now available through ValueTrak – A Unified Data and Services Platform."

Steve Friedman, Vice President, Pharmaceutical Trade Relations at PDX-Rx.com stated, "Manufacturers can now obtain full visibility of their product activity. The combination of ValueCentric’s trade data with PDX-Rx.com participating pharmacy prescription data allows manufacturers to monitor and report at each step in the supply chain, drive improved patient care with higher compliance rates, increase sales and profitability, and have one common, easy-to-use platform to manage all the data."
