The pathway to better procurement: How IU Health is lowering pharmacy costs + driving efficiency


Hospital pharmacy budgets have faced major challenges in recent years. While the procurement process is crucial for managing costs, too often, it's disjointed — resulting in supply delays and funds lost in inefficiencies and overpayments. Proactive systems like Indianapolis-based Indiana University Health are addressing the issue with added operational support.

In this paper, you'll access insights from a discussion with pharmacy leadership at IU Health and learn how they implemented a centralized service center (CSC) to improve hospital operations, clinical workflows, and patient and employee satisfaction. 

You'll learn: 
 
  • How CSCs help with medication management and non-pharmacy supply chains
  • IU Health's advice + best practices for other organizations planning to stand up a CSC
  • Strategies for meeting established milestones and measuring success
