Omnicell, a health tech company that offers pharmacy products such as medication-filling robots, launched a service Oct. 11 to help hospitals set up and operate specialty pharmacy programs.
"As chronic illness continues to rise, patients often need access to these complex specialty medications to prevent rehospitalization and maintain health outcomes," Omnicell said in a news release. "Establishing and optimizing a specialty pharmacy can be an important step for any hospital looking to support access, enhance patient care and drive revenue in the growing specialty medication market."
Omnicell's specialty pharmacy services will focus on a value-based approach.
