CASE STUDY
www.supplylogix.com
PRIMARY INTENDED OUTCOME
Hospitals and health care systems in the United States handle more than
35 million patients each year. These large operations are fnding that the cost
savings associated with efective pharmacy supply-chain management can
have a big impact on the bottom line, as well as on patient care.
Supplylogix ofers a suite of software products that enables pharmacies to gain
competitive advantages. Pharmacies can leverage Supplylogix's supply-chain
tools to optimize their inventory replenishment, manage potential losses from
unsaleable returns, and monitor their product movement.
THE CHALLENGE
UW Health, an integrated health system associated with the University of
Wisconsin-Madison, serves 600,000 patients each year in the Upper Midwest
region of the country. With six hospitals and 15 dispensing sites, UW Health
processes upwards of 44,000 prescriptions per month. A large portion of their
services is related to specialty pharmacy items, including diabetes, transplant,
and HIV care, making their inventory costs exceptionally high compared to
standard retail pharmacy.
