Clinical Patient Management Programs

Internally Built Clinical PM Programs:

Integrated Within Your Pharmacy Software for Operational Efficiency,

Designed to Promote Strong Clinical Programs and Deliver Proven Clinical & Financial Outcomes

Recognizing Your Challenges

Outstanding patient-centered clinical programs with proven outcomes are pivotal to the success of any specialty or infusion pharmacy service. Your Patient Management (PM) Program should be the cornerstone of your services, driving both clinical excellence and business success. Additionally, the PM program is one of the most critical requirements for all major accreditations.

Building an effective clinical program within pharmacy dispensing software is challenging. Common issues include:

Separate Software Platforms: Organizations often require separate software for PM activities, leading to:

  • Dual data entry
  • Missing information
  • Inefficiencies

Extensive Templates: Lengthy processes consume valuable pharmacy personnel time and cause operational delays.

Lack of a Unified Solution: Without a streamlined system, organizations face:

  • Documentation gaps
  • Accreditation failures
  • Compromised patient care

These inefficiencies not only strain resources but also complicate data collection, making it harder to demonstrate therapy effectiveness to stakeholders. The fear of missing critical elements often leads to overcomplication, consuming excessive personnel and patient time. Inadequate clinical programs can jeopardize both clinical outcomes and financial success, resulting in lost opportunities for payer contracts and manufacturer partnerships.

Accreditation Preparation Process helped to Establish a Solid Structure to Grow Our Home Infusion, Specialty Pharmacy Business
We were in a rush due to the expiration of the previous accreditation. EK helped us achieve accreditation within 4 months. EK was strategic and the process was extremely efficient. The consultant helped us simplify all processes by removing unnecessary steps that were previously in place and then implementing missing key components. The accreditation preparation process with EK tremendously helped us to establish a solid structure to grow our home infusion and specialty pharmacy business (both administrative and clinical pharmacy areas) - thanks to her hands on experience in regulatory compliance, pharmacy operations, clinical programs, marketing in specialty, home infusion pharmacy.

Before starting the reaccreditation project with EK Specialty, we were uncertain if we were prepared for the accrediting agency survey process. The education provided by EK was exceptional. We are grateful for EK's education and guidance with the requirements and best practices of each standard. EK also compared the requirements of other accrediting bodies to incorporate them as best practices into our processes.

Mock Survey - Comprehensive Gap Analysis and Strategic Remediation Plans
We knew we were non-compliant in some areas but were not clear on what was truly missing or how to make remediation plans in order to pass our upcoming re-accreditation survey. EK’s mock survey and comprehensive gap analysis executive report helped us to understand the level of our compliance and gauge our readiness for our upcoming reaccreditation survey. Based on EK’s gap analysis, the consultant helped to develop a customized project master plan that helped us prioritize each key section and thus we were able to complete all tasks within the timeframe. The accurate diagnostic survey and the strategic remediation plans provided us clear guidance and solutions on what and how to correct all the deficiencies in a correct way such a short time.

Staff Training with Clarity and Competency with Confidence
EK Consultant trained us in all aspects of accreditation standards, CA Pharmacy law, USP797 and USP800. I am very fortunate to have received this training. She helped our pharmacy correct all non-complaint areas. It was a breeze when the board of pharmacy inspector visited us for the sterile compounding license inspection. We also received our accreditation report with no deficiencies. With EK specialty pharmacy consulting, we now have clarity and confidence for ongoing compliance.

Disease Specific PM Program built in Rx software - Highly Effective, Efficient, Cost Saving
EK consultant helped us develop our distinguished Patient Management (PM) program, specifically tailored to our business model, our current operations including our software programs. We were able to build a platform in our software program without purchasing an additional clinical program platform which would have cost tons and double our personnel time in order to manage two different programs. Our disease specific PM program is highly effective and covers every single accreditation requirement. This program saves our pharmacist a tremendous amount of time as well as our patient time to complete all clinical activities. With our program, we were able to perform clinical assessments for over 400 patients for the past 3 months for our 2020,2021 active patients.

Mock Survey – A Key Part of Accurate Diagnosis and Plans for Corrections, Improvement
EK’s mock survey was outstanding and the mock survey itself helped us greatly. It was like we were going through a real survey. EK principal consultant simulated the actual survey from the opening conference, thorough review of entire policies and each required document in detail, staff interview during facility tour, process observations, citing deficiencies all the way to the closing conference. Throughout the mock survey, the consultant provided strategies to correct all deficient areas and refine each area. We learned so much through EKs mock survey and we were able to put all the remaining puzzles together to complete our re-accreditation preparation with greater confidence and clarity. I truly believe the mock survey was a key part of us being able to understand where we were in terms of compliance and with EK's help establish/implement a plan to improve it.
