How the Service Works

Our Math is Complex - Our Service is Easy

Background
Calculating inpatient Pharmacy productivity is simply too complex for a single 'metric' to accommodate. That's been established by published literature. To illustrate that concept, using the same metric for all sites is like asking a surgeon to do every procedure using just one instrument. Our proprietary modeling uses an approach that avoids that fatal mistake.

Methodology
No two hospitals are the same. To treat them the same delivers inaccurate results. Even the EMR you use has an effect on productivity. Our team uses your pharmacy data to build custom complex equations. That creates a hospital specific profile that incorporates your site's unique characteristics. We apply a set of sophisticated proprietary benchmarks to return results that are specific and accurate.

FTE Management
Having too many FTE's is clearly inefficient. Too few is also costly and increases risk. Our modeling delivers a standardized estimate of labor required - not an fte target. It adjusts as your volumes and activities adjust. We focus on front-line activities and adjust for complexities. Therefore, we deliver a more reliable estimate of the actual labor needed. You decide what to do from there. Our math is complex, our service is easy.

IT Management
To keep the service advanced, accurate, efficient, and affordable, we do everything virtually. There are no site visits or consultants. However, we do use operationally and clinically experienced people to evaluate and analyze your data. Results are returned to you electronically or via another method. We do not need, nor will we accept, any protected information. Your information is not stored online or in the 'cloud'.

Basic Process
Once you begin our services, we will send your pharmacy a series of questions, via email, over approximately 6 weeks. These questions usually require little to no research by your staff. This information allows us to build your custom site profile and test the output. Once that is satisfactory to us, your site goes 'live'. Then bi-weekly, your pharmacy sends us their data, and we return the results in an easy to read one or two page report.

Service Agreements
There are no lengthy contracts or long term commitments, just a simple agreement to arrange services. Use the service for as long as you need the most accurate information.
