Smarter Drug Shortage Management At Your Fingertips

  • Leverages collective knowledge of other health systems, publicly available and proprietary drug shortage sources, and actual purchasing and utilization data to identify potential and actual drug shortage products
  • Provides suggestions for alternative products peer health systems are adopting to manage a shortage and where to get them. e.g., 503Bs like Quva, secondary suppliers, etc.
  • AI-powered models forecast drug shortages weeks in advance by comparing your actual utilization, days on hand, and prescribing trends vs other health systems.
  • Provides automated messaging recommendations for purchasing adjustments / inventory rebalancing across the health-system and all sites of care.
  • Establishes an audit trail of all actions which are maintained for future reference and use.
  • A natural complement to our Supply Advisor solution given the common inventory and utilization data sets powering both solutions

  • Drug Shortage Navigator identifies your product hot spots at risk for going on shortage and flags what to manage
  • Risk is based on your health system’s Days Inventory on Hand vs the rolling 30-day utilization of those products across your system (i.e., True-Use Tracker TM)
  • Red box products should be managed because they have high 30-day administration rates and lower days on hand
  • Green area is no concern because ample inventory is shown across your system to cover the 30-day administration rate; Yellow is a watch list of products
  • Updated in real time based upon drug administrations and inventory levels being tracked through your own data systems

  • Go beyond drugs on shortage—our collective data even gives you supply side insights so you know how you are doing on fill rate for all drugs of interest vs the market
  • The system monitors your fill rate %, benchmarked against the broader market’s fill rate % , on a range of products of interest
  • Products where your health system may be running into a risky situation on future supply vs the market will be flagged for you to watch—red dots
  • You can then assess your current supplier and or secondary supplier access and take action to manage at risk products
