Our History

RxToolKit’s mission is to improve patient access and clinical outcomes through software solutions that enhance medication safety and increase clinical competency.

RxToolKit was founded in 2001 by Chuck DiTrapano, RPh. Since its inception, Chuck and his team have been dedicated to bringing best-in-class medication education and clinical training to infusion and pharmacy providers across the United States.

Chuck is a pharmacist, seasoned healthcare executive, military veteran, and the founder of RxToolKit. Before founding RxToolKit, Chuck served in various leadership roles within large healthcare organizations including Vitalink Pharmacy Services and Omnicare.

Notably, Chuck served as the Operations Manager of Reading Health System’s Pharmacy from 2001 until 2017. At Reading, Chuck was inspired to start RxToolKit as he saw firsthand the need to enhance medication safety through process improvement.

Reading fully supported Chuck’s effort to develop a software solution designed to reduce medical errors, enhance clinical competencies, increase patient safety, and improve clinical outcomes. Reading is still a client to this day.

Chuck’s passion for medication safety, clinical competency and process improvement was deepened when he nearly made an error himself in 2007.

On his second shift of the day, Chuck was checking a large number of intravenous (IV) bags and initially missed a mixing error. Something made him go back and double check himself, and thankfully, he caught the mistake.

Chuck’s near miss led him to befriend Eric Cropp and Chris Jerry. Chuck would later become a board member of the Emily Jerry Foundation where he serves as Treasurer.

Chuck and RxToolKit are also proud members of the National Infusion Center Association (NICA).
