Instead of extracting data from multiple sources, we wanted to have one source for managing the inventory adjustments and that’s really BD HealthSight™ Inventory Optimization.

David Webster, RPh, MSBA, Director of Acute Care Pharmacy Operations, Assistant Professor of Clinical Community and Preventive Medicine University of Rochester Medical Center / Strong Memorial Hospital

Abstract

By using advanced analytics, the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC) realized a significant reduction in stock-out rates (a 266% reduction at one facility for targeted medications), a reduction in expired waste from Automated Dispensing Cabinets (a 66% reduction at one facility), as well as decreased inventory carrying costs. URMC also made great strides in mitigating staff frustration and confusion, resulting in improved efficiencies in pharmacist and technician workflows related to inventory replenishment.

URMC maintained and improved efficiencies further with BD HealthSight™ Inventory Optimization, which has replaced most report generation and manual calculations with automated inventory analysis and intelligent recommendation processes.

Impact

Implementing BD HealthSight™ Inventory Optimization resulted in immediate reductions in cost and manual effort, measurable and sustained improvement in key performance indicators for inventory management, and the ability to redeploy staff to other priority initiatives.

Overview

Leverage your IT investments to drive efficiencies and manage costs.

Our solutions can analyze usage data on stockouts and refills during set time periods to determine optimal refill times. This reduces tech workflow conflicts with care teams—when a nurse needs to get a medication to a patient, it can be restocked before they get to that cabinet. 

Advanced analytics can also help make refill trips more efficient, working toward one major replenishment per day—saving time and alleviating stress associated with misplaced meds.

Interoperability

Enhancing your existing systems with the strategic interoperability of BD technologies unlocks more dynamic capabilities

A single medication management source that exchanges information with existing systems and a unified formulary allows your team to focus on their strengths and accelerate the speed of patient care.
