to deliver savings and value to members.
Product Overview
Innovatix offers one of the most extensive, competitive purchasing portfolios
available today. We provide members access to an $83 billion purchasing
portfolio comprising 3,000+ contracts through over 1,400 suppliers.
Value-Added Services
Innovatix member benefits extend beyond the significant savings we
provide through our group purchasing services. While group purchasing
is at the core of what we do, Innovatix is committed to offering additional
value to help our members grow and excel.
• Innovatix Educational Institute: Each month, Innovatix offers free
accredited Continuing Education (CE) opportunities. Members can
take advantage of these learning sessions from the convenience of
their own computers.
• Government Affairs: Based in Washington, D.C., Premier’s
Government Affairs office acts as an advocate for members of
the Premier alliance — including Innovatix members — and the
communities they serve. Every day, we’re working to shape federal
laws and regulations so they align with our members’ efforts to
drive innovation and lead the transformation to high-quality,
cost-effective healthcare.
• Clinical Experts: Innovatix staff includes clinical pharmacists and
physician consultants who provide members with best practice
studies, disease state management information, formulary
management, and medication error reduction strategies.
Pharmacy Operations Improvement Programs
Our suite of pharmacy operations improvement programs are designed
to address your operations needs without distracting from your main
mission — providing high-quality patient care.
• Premier PSAO: Successfully navigating Medicare Part D to
maximize reimbursement on Medicare prescription drug benefit
claims is a major challenge for many pharmacies today. Premier
PSAO provides pharmacies access to Medicare Part D contracts
with the nation’s largest prescription drug plans and pharmacy
benefit managers.
• Scriptmax®: Offers the most complete pharmacy claim support in
the industry. Through a comprehensive suite of pre-edit, post-edit,

• PINC AI™ Clinical Surveillance for LTC Pharmacies: Our clinical
surveillance capabilities provide a comprehensive, real-time workflow
solution for infection preventionists and clinical pharmacists.
The technology can help detect, manage, control, and alert
to improper treatment of infection-related conditions during
COVID-19 and beyond by enabling: 1) automated alerts,
including COVID-specific alerts, for patients suspected or
confirmed for infections; 2) automated flags on patient records to
allow for robust tracking of patients in an outbreak group;
3) comprehensive documentation forms, including a custom
set specific to COVID and routine infections such as Methicillin-
resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Clostridium difficile
(C. diff), and urinary tract infections (UTIs); 4) electronic submission
of infections to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s
(CDC’s) National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) system.
