Pipeline Healthcare (www.Pipelinehealthcare.com) is helping hospitals across the nation improve patient medication safety by serving as an expert extension of hospital pharmacy departments. With flexible services in the areas of medication order review, drug verification, and on-demand telepharmacy, Pipeline Healthcare helps hospitals achieve 24/7 pharmacy coverage 365 days a year by supplementing their staff during peak hours and day, night or weekend shifts.

Pipeline Healthcare client hospitals gain their very own dedicated and highly trained pharmacist teams who quickly learn and uphold each facility’s policies, procedures, pharmacy workflow and specific clinical initiatives. State licensed hospital-experienced pharmacists respond to physicians’ orders and nurses’ questions enabling real-time dialog and clinical interventions that prevent medication errors and improve patient care.

“Pipeline appreciates and works closely with both pharmacy and nursing teams during implementation and with regular updates and focuses on the hospital’s formulary and clinical initiatives,” says Christine Ciolko, Sr. Vice President of Business Development and RPh.

“Pipeline Healthcare’s remote order entry processing typically saves hospitals 40 percent in hard dollar costs as well as significant soft dollar costs as measured by increased clinical interventions, avoided medication errors, happier internal hospital staff, and lower recruiting costs,” says CEO Brian Roberts. Pipeline is currently serving both rural and urban markets, critical access and large hospitals, and independent and affiliated hospitals from coast to coast.

Pipeline Healthcare will be showcasing its remote order entry processing solution as well as other leading services at the 46th ASHP (American Society of Health-System Pharmacists) Midyear Clinical Meeting and Exhibition, December 4 – 8, at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Visit booth 2525 to learn more.
