Financial Stewardship & Waste Management
Challenge
Obtaining transparency into medication utilization is essential for preventing waste, maintaining appropriate inventory, and ensuring the supply of critical drugs. However, this often requires a manual effort of mining electronic health records, which can take months. Even then, the data is often limited to what is ordered and manually documented, not what is actually administered.
Solution

Our pharmacy team weighs improvement opportunities against clinician workflow and procurement considerations, as well as USP <797> standards to provide turn-key interventions.

Save Money by Reducing Waste
Conserve Supply & Reduce Over-Dispensing of Controlled Substances
Controlled substance diversion is among the top concerns of Pharmacy leaders. A critical element in reducing the risk of diversion and meeting compliance requirements is avoiding over-dispensing of controlled substances. However, identifying optimal preparations to reduce unnecessary dispensing while still meeting clinical requirements can be a time-consuming and challenging process.
Driving Standardization following M&A consolidation
Health system consolidations and M&A can pose significant challenges to pharmacy operations teams, as workflows across numerous sites of care have to be standardized. Efficiently identifying opportunities for standardization in the pharmacy supply chain is essential to realizing the value of consolidations and accelerating payback periods.
