How We Partner with Health Systems
We provide technology-enabled services to help solve Pharmacy’s biggest challenges.
National Infusion Collaborative
The National Infusion Collaborative (NIC) is a free-to-join academic, non-commercial forum for pharmacy and safety leaders to:
- Access national benchmarks, including library builds, compliance and alert statistics, and formulation utilization
- Learn from, and share best practices with, a nationwide network of professionals
- Drive a zero-harm environment for patients receiving injectable medications using smart infusion pumps
Infusion Pump Safety Services
Fill the gap between what infusion pump vendors provide and what pharmacy and safety leaders require:
- Clinical Intelligence Reports provide direct interventions supported by network dataset and literature
- Fully managed services to shorten time to interventions and broaden opportunity scope
- Improve patient safety and nurse efficiency
IV Medication Utilization
Utilize disparate medication administration source data to support better formulary decisions:
- Streamline concentrations and dispense volumes in formulary to reduce waste and align with standard concentration recommendations
- Evaluation of purchasing and/or production decisions
- Reduce controlled substance diversion risk
Key Partnerships
Standardize 4 Safety
We're excited to announce that we're collaborating with the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists to inform and empower Standardize for Safety.
National industry standards are essential to improving safety and reducing supply chain complexity. However, adopting standards—and being confident that they will work at any one particular institution—is challenging.
Collaboration Highlights
Utilization of comprehensive network benchmarking data to help update and sustain standard concentrations that are reflective of health system practice
Application of Med O.S. data science platform to reduce complexity for hospital pharmacists and the pharmaceutical supply chain by reducing formulation variation
Feedback from Our Partners
Actionable data is what every change agent in an organization craves. We feel strongly that Bainbridge Health is the perfect partner to help us better and more efficiently utilize our medication data to improve outcomes.
