DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., May 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Craneware Group, a leader in healthcare financial performance solutions, reaffirms its commitment to America's safety net hospitals by delivering independent, intelligent, and invested support for 340B Covered Entities. Built on a foundation of trust and transparency, The Craneware Group empowers providers to maximize program benefits, ensure compliance, and strengthen financial sustainability—ultimately supporting better patient care.
Championing 340B with Independence and Integrity
Unlike organizations that profit from distribution or 340B mechanics, The Craneware Group remains fully independent—focused solely on helping healthcare providers navigate the program with clarity, control, and compliance.
"The 340B program is a critical lifeline for safety net hospitals and the communities they serve," said Lidia Rodriguez-Hupp, Chief Customer Officer. "We are steadfast in our advocacy and continue to invest in innovative solutions that help providers protect and optimize this vital resource."
Innovation That Drives Program Optimization
The Craneware Group continues to advance 340B performance through investments in real-time data, automation, and strategic partnerships that directly address today's operational challenges—reducing manual effort, improving accuracy, and strengthening audit readiness.
Unified Intelligence for Smarter Outcomes
To redefine 340B optimization, The Craneware Group has expanded the capabilities of its flagship solutions—Sentinel® and Sentrex®—through a strategic partnership with Microsoft. Leveraging the Oracle Database@Azure offering, the company now runs Oracle workloads on the Microsoft Azure platform, creating a secure, unified, and scalable environment for 340B data processing and analysis.
This integration provides covered entities with real-time insights, faster decision-making, and improved performance across compliance and financial outcomes. (URL: read the Microsoft success story).
