BOWIE, Md. – February 21, 2024 – Inovalon, a leading provider of cloud-based software solutions empowering data-driven healthcare, today announced VigiLanz, an Inovalon solution and leading provider of SaaS-based clinical surveillance and patient safety technology, has earned the 2024 Best in KLAS designation from KLAS Research for both Pharmacy Surveillance and Infection Control and Monitoring.
This marks the seventh consecutive year VigiLanz ranks No. 1 in Pharmacy Surveillance, solidifying its position as the market leader in pharmacy surveillance software and bringing the company’s total count of KLAS awards to 14.
“We are honored to be recognized as Best in KLAS for Pharmacy Surveillance for the seventh year in a row, and to be named the industry leader in Infection Control and Monitoring,” said Dr. Hayley Burgess, SVP, Provider Surveillance and Safety at Inovalon. “These awards are a testament to our team’s dedication to delivering the highest quality solutions and services to our customers. We remain committed to helping healthcare organizations improve patient safety and deliver the best possible care.”
Pharmacy Surveillance
VigiLanz Pharmacy Surveillance continuously monitors data from the EHR and ancillary clinical systems to improve medication safety, standardize practices, and maximize efficiencies. Based on the system’s built-in rule sets or hospital-specific guidelines, it automatically generates alerts that help clinicians make appropriate drug therapy decisions.
VigiLanz is way ahead of the curve in terms of coming up with new ideas and bringing things in before we even know that we need them. The vendor has helped us figure things out, improve our workflows, and come up with new ideas. That has helped us stay on the cutting edge of things. We have been very impressed with the vendor’s innovations, and they have only gotten better. The solution does everything that the vendor promised it could.

Infection Control and Monitoring
VigiLanz’s Dynamic Infection Control Monitor is a seamless, real-time, automated monitoring system that works with an organization’s EHR. Its exception-based alert system puts patient data under continuous surveillance to alert decision makers in real time of potential infections, MDROs, isolation candidates, organism clusters, conditions of concern, and reportable infections. The surveillance is based on a sophisticated set of customizable rule engines.
If a peer asked me about Dynamic Infection Control Monitor, I would tell them it is the most robust surveillance system that we have seen. I would also tell them that it is their best bet at ensuring that they don’t have an outbreak at their facility.
